Answer:

95 ; 105

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Aanya's time = x

Krish's time = x + 10

Together = 50

Hence

Aanya's rate = 1/x

Krish's rate = 1/(x + 10)

Together rate = 1/50

Hence,

1/x + 1/(x + 10) = 1 / 50

((x + 10) + x) / x(x + 10) = 1/ 50

(2x + 10)/ x² + 10x = 1/50

50(2x + 10) = x² + 10x

100x + 500 = x² + 10x

x² + 10x - 100x - 500 = 0

x² - 90x - 500 = 0

Using the quadratic equation solver :

x = 95.24 ; x = - 5.24

Time can't be negative

Hence, x = 95 (nearest minute)

It takes Aanya 95 minutes Alone a ND

Krishna (95 + 10) = 105 minutes alone

Leo is drinking tea . he drinks 3 1/2 liter of tea every 2/3 of an hour . how many liters of tea he drinks in one hour?
My name is Ann [436]
Divide 3 1/2 by 2/3.

3 1/2 = 7/2 as an improper fraction, so we have

7/2 ÷ 2/3

= 7/2 * 3/2

= 21/4 = 5 1/4 L
