Question

um of two numbers is 81. If the greater number is divided by the smaller, the quotient is 7 and remainder is 1. Find the smaller number. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

LET,

smaller number be 'x'

larger number be 'y'

In the case of y/x , Q=7 & R=1

=>   (x*7)+1=y

    Here  x + y = 81

         => x = 81 - y

=>((81-y)*7) + 1 = y

=>567 - 7 y + 1 = y

                568 = 8 y

                    y  = 568/8

            =>    y  = 71  

             x =81 - y

        =>  x = 10

Therefore, the smaller number is 10
