Question

The sum of two numbers is 4000.if 15% of one is equal to 25% of another find the numbers

Answer 1

Let:
The integers are
1st = x
2nd = y
As by the given condition:
x + y = 4000--------(i)
According to 2nd contidtion:
15°/. x = 25°/. y
15\100 (x) = 25/100 (y)
15 x = 25 y
x =25/15 (y)
x= 5/3(y)-------(ii)
by putting this valuein eq(i):
5/3( y) + y =4000
8/3 (y) = 4000
8y = 4000(3)
8y = 12000
y = 1500
Now by putting this value in eq(ii):
x = 5/3 (1500)
x =7500/3
x= 2500
Hence these are the integers:
x = 2500 and y =1500

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x=2500 and y=1500
