Let the smaller number be x.
Given, the larger number is 7 times the smaller number.
So, the larger number = 7x.
Given, 3 times the larger number is 7 more than 4 times the smaller number.
So we can write the equation as,



Now we have to move 4x to the left side by subtracting 4x from both sides.



To get x, we will divide both sides by 17. We will get,


So the smaller number = 
The larger number =
= 
So we have got the required numbers.
Smaller number =
and larger number =
.
I think the answer is around 1.4 as you need to multiply the area by 1/9 after finding the real area.
The answer to your question is -5
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8 × 6/8= 30/8 => this is the wrong one
it should be 5/8 × 6/8= 30/64.
9/10×3/10= 27/100 => this is the true one
