Answer:
One number is 17 and the other is 85.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be m and n. Let m = (1/5)n. Note that m+n = 18.
Substituting (1/5)n for m in the 2nd equation, we get (1/5)n + (5/5)n = 18. Multiplying all three terms by 5 to remove fractions, we get n + 5 = 90, so that n = 85. m is (1/5) of 85, or m = 17.
Answer:
<h3><u>Let's</u><u> </u><u>understand the concept</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
- Here 12 is 90% of a number.
- So we can say that 90% of That number is 12 .
- In this way we can get the the number
<h3><u>Solution</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
Let,
the number=x
<h3>According to the question ,</h3>
- We know 90%=90/100
- so add it
- Now use cross multiplication method
- Answer will come in decimals so we take approximate value.
The number is 13.
Just set it equal to zero and solve using the quadratic equation.
It would go after four as it equates to about 4.2
