Question

The product of two positive numbers is 1,800. one number is twice the other number. the equation to determine the two numbers, with x representing the value of the lesser number, is x(2x) = 1,800. what is the value of the lesser number? 24 30 48 60

Answer 1

Answer: The value of the lesser number will be 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

the product of two positive numbers is 1800.

Let the first positive number be x

Let the second positive number be 2x

According to question,

$x\times 2x=1800\\\\2x^2=1800\\\\x^2=\frac{1800}{2}\\\\x^2=900\\\\x=\sqrt{900}\\\\x=30$

So, the first positive number will be 30.

and the second positive number will be

$30\times 2=60$

Hence, the value of the lesser number will be 30.
