Question

the sum of two numbers is 120.If one of the numbers is four times the other find the numbers.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answers are 24 and 96.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the one no. as X

then according to the question it is mentioned that the other number is 4 times the other .

so you should quickly recognise and write

4x + x = 120

5x = 120

x = 120/5

x = 24

therefore x = 24

and we know that the other no. is 4x

therefore 4x = 4*24 = 96 .

therefore the no. are 24 & 96 .

I hope I could help you out .
