X = larger number and y = smaller number

x + y = 153....x = 153 - y
x - 4y = 18

153 - y - 4y = 18
153 - 5y = 18
-5y = 18 - 153
-5y = -135
y = -135/-5
y = 27 <=== smaller number

x - 4y = 18
x - 4(27) = 18
x - 108 = 18
x = 18 + 108
x = 126 <== larger number

Of the 48 oranges in a carton 1/3 of them were rotten Ben and David took the remaining good oranges it's been took eat my orange
Burka [1]

Answer:

David took 16 oranges.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total number of oranges = 48

Oranges rotten =

\dfrac{1}{3}

Number of oranges rotten =

\dfrac{1}{3}\times 48\\\\=16

There were 16 rotten oranges.

Number of good oranges left =

= 48-16\\=32

These are equally divided among Ben and David.

Number of oranges each Ben and David get =

\dfrac{32}{2} = 16

Thus, David took 16 oranges.
