Answer:

2 or 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer that we will use this equation 1/t1 +1/t2=1/ttotal

where t1 is the time of smaller pipe while t2 is the of the larger pipe

Given t total =4 while t2 is equal to t2=t1-6

So know you can solve the problem by changing it into (2t1-6)/(t1*(t1-6))=1/4

8( t1-3)=(t1^2-6t1)

t1^2-14t1+24=0

t1=2 or 12

Two numbers have theses properties . both numbers are greater than 6 . their hcf = 6 . their lcm = 60. what are the two numbers

aleksandrvk [35]

Let the numbers be x and y.
x*y=HCF*LCM=6*60=360
thus
y=360/x
next we find the list of combinations of x and y and test if they satisfy the conditions above:
(6,60),(12,30),(18,20),(24,15)
out of the above, only (6,60) and (12,30) satisfy both conditions. Thus our answer is:
(6,60) or (12,30)
