Divide 54 into two parts so that four times the greater equals five time the less

1 answer:

5 0

Let the both the parts be 'x' and 'y'
x>y
We know that 4x = 5y
so x = 5y/4
x + y = 54
Replacing x we get
(5y/4) + y = 54
(5y +4y)/4 = 54
9y = 216
y = 24
Replacing y in ' x+y = 54'
we get x = 30

Hence the larger part is 30 whereas the smaller part is 24

$\displaystyle \mathbf{\frac{5}{(c+4)}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Division of Rational Expressions</u>

When dividing two rational expressions like f(c) / g(c), it's usually easier to multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator: f(c) * (1/g(c)). The reciprocal is just flipping the numerator and the denominator.

Let's find the following division:

$\displaystyle \frac{\frac{c^2-64}{3c^2+26c+16}} {\frac{c^2-4c-32}{15c+10}}$
