Question

The sum of two unequal number is 820. If the bigger number is divided by the smaller number, the quotient is 8 and the remainder is 19. Assuming the smaller number to be x,form an equation. Also find the two numbers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

assume the numbers be 'x' & 'y'

x+y = 820

y = 820-x ----eq1

diviser * quotient + remainder = dividend

y/x = 8 (quotient = 8)

            (remainder = 19)

8x+19 = y -----eq

now substitute eq1 in eq

8x+19 = 820-x

9x = 801

x = 89

substitute x value in eq1

y = 820-89

y = 731
