Let's have the first number, the larger number, be <em>x</em>. We'll have the second, smaller number be <em>y</em>.
We know that x = y + 6, since x is 6 greater than y.
We also know that 330 = x + y.
Because x = y + 6, 330 = y + 6 + y, which simplifies to 330 = 2y + 6.
Now all we need to do is simplify the equation. First, we subtract 6 from both sides:
330 - 6 = 324
2y + 6 - 6 = 2y.
So we have 324 = 2y. Then we divide both sides by 2 to get:
162 = y
Plug in y = 162 into the equation x = y + 6 to get:
x = 162 + 6
x = 168
Let's check to make sure our answer is right. 168 is 6 more than 162. 162 + 168 equals 330. So our two numbers are 168 and 162.
Question:
The cost of 12 kg sugar is $240 what will be the cost of 3 kg sugar.
Given:
- Cost of 12 kg sugar = $240
To find?
Answer :
<u>To find </u><u>c</u><u>o</u><u>s</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>3kg sugar first we have to find cost of 1 kg sugar</u><u>.</u>
- Cost of 1 kg sugar = Cost of total no. of sugar ÷Total sugar
- Cost of 1 kg sugar = $240/12
- Cost of 1 kg sugar = $20
<u>Now Let's find cost of 3 kg sugar</u>
Cost of 3kg sugar = total no of sugar ×Cost of 1 kg sugar
Cost of 3kg sugar = 3×$20
Cost of 3kg sugar = $60
