Question

Twenty-four is divided into two parts such that 7 times the first part added to 5 times the second part makes 146. Find each part.

Answer 1

Heya here is your answer✔✔✔

let the two parts are x and (24-x)

✔According to the question

7x+5(24-x)=146

➡7x+120-5x=146

➡2x+120=146

➡2x=146-120

➡2x=26

➡x=26/2=13

so the two parts are x=13 and 24-x=11
