Answer 1

Answer:

Hey....!!!!

Let the two numbers be x and y...

Now by the first condition...

x + y = 84 -------1)

Now , second condition...

x = 6y --------2)

Putting value of x = 6y in equation 1)...

6y + y = 84

7y = 84

y = 84/7

y = 12....

Now ,

x = 6(12)

x = 72...

Hope this helps....☺️❣️❤️

Answer 2

Answer:

The Numbers are 72 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sum of the numbers = 84

One Number = 6 times other

To find :

The two numbers

Solution :

Let the Numbers be -

• One as x
• Second as 6x

$\longrightarrow$ 6x + x = 84

$\longrightarrow$ 7x = 84

$\longrightarrow$ x = 84/7

$\longrightarrow$ 12

One Number = 12

$\rule{300}{1.5}$

★ Value of 6x

$\longrightarrow$ 6(12)

$\longrightarrow$ 72

Second Number = 72

$\therefore$ The Numbers are 72 and 12.
