X=6y

sum of their reciprocals
(1/x)+(1/y)=7
x=6y
1/6y+1/y=7
1/6y+6/6y=7
7/6y=7
times both sides by 6y
7=42y
divide both sides by 42
1/6=y

x=6y
x=6(1/6)
x=6/6
x=1

the numbers are 1 and 1/6

On a test of 76 ​items, Pedro got 93​% correct.​ (There was partial credit on some​ items.) How many items did he get​ correct?
Firlakuza [10]
You would use the “is/of” method.

93 / 100 = x / 76

Cross multiply and divide:

7068 / 100 = 70.68

This means Pedro got around 70 to 71 questions correct and 5 or 6 questions incorrect.
