Question

The sum of two numbers is 64. Twice the larger number increased by five times the smaller number is 20. Find the number.

Answer 1

Answer:

100 and -36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number = x

Small number = 64 - x

atq = x+5*(64-x) = 20

x+320-5x = 20

-3x = 20-320 = -300

x = 300/3 = 100

Another number

= 64-100

= -36

100+(-36)=64
