Question

2 numbers are such that if 7 is added to the first number, a number twice the second number is obtained. If 20 is added to the second number, the number obtained is four times the first number. Find the two numbers​

Answer 1

Answer:

1st= 47/7 or 6.71

2nd= 48/7 or 6.857

Step-by-step explanation:

1st number =X and 2nd number = Y

According to question, X+7=2Y

20+Y=4X

X=2Y-7 (from 1st condition)

putting in it second

20+Y=4(2Y-7)

20+Y=8Y-28

20+28=8Y-Y

48=7Y

Y=48/7

so X=2(48/7)-7

=96-49/7

47/7
