Question

the sum of two numbers is 30 and their quotient is 2

Answer 1

x+y= 30

x/y=2

Probabilities= 15, 15; 10, 20; etc.

We will take 10 and 20 as the first option.

20+10= 30

1st criteria fits.

20/10= 2

2nd criteria fits too.

Therefore, answer is 20 and 10.

x= 20

y=10

Answer 2

Answer:

Concept:

• The outcome of adding two or more numbers or phrases is known as the sum in mathematics. The sum is a method of bringing things together as a result. To put it another way, adding two or more numbers together results in a new result or total.

• A quotient in mathematics is the amount created by dividing two numbers. The term "quotient" is used frequently in mathematics and is sometimes known as the integer portion of a division, a fraction, or a ratio.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The sum of two numbers is 30 and their quotient is 2

To find:

A pair of numbers that met with given conditions.

Solution:

• Let the numbers be $x$ and $y$
• By given conditions,

            $x+y=30$        ⇒ A        and

                  $\frac{x}{y} =2$      ⇒   B

From B, $x=2y$

• Substituting value of $x$  in A,

                  $2y+y=30$

                          $3y=30$

                             $y=\frac{30}{3}$

                             $y=10$

• Substituting value of $y=10$  in A,

                     $x+10=30$

                             $x=30-10$

                             $x=20$

Hence, $x=20$  and $y=10$
