first, add 14+8 and get 22 then do 22* 40 and get 880 so $880
Let them be X and Y..
now...
yx=100 ....
y=100/y ...
now...
x+y= s....where s is their sum...
but y=100/x
now....x+100/x=s..
by differentiating both sides with respect to x..
1-100/x^2=ds/dx
but ds/dx=0..
100=x^2 ..
x=10..
so y=10
There are 2 cups to a pint
so multiply by 1/2
The answer is negative 40 over 9
