Answer:
7 and 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be a and b.
<u>A positive number is 7 times another number:</u>
<u>If 3 is added to both the numbers then one of the new number becomes 5 by 2 times the other new number:</u>
<u>To solve this we substitute </u><u>a</u><u> with </u><u>7b</u><u> in the second equation:</u>
- 7b + 3 = 5/2 × (b +3) ⇒ multiplying both sides by 2
- 14b + 6 = 5b + 15 ⇒ collecting like terms
- 14b - 5b = 15 - 6
- 9b = 9
- b = 1 ⇒ solved for b
<u>Then, finding a:</u>
- a= 7b
- a=7*1
- a= 7 ⇒ solved for a
<u>So the numbers are</u> 7 and 1
This problem, as written, requires a bit of guessing regarding your intentions. My interpretation is that you want to do this division:
2
----------
1 6/7
If that's correct, here's what to do: rewrite 1 6/7 as 13/7 (an improper fraction).
Then divide:
2
-------- This is equivalent to the multiplication (2/1)(7/13) = 14/13 (answer)
13/7
