Question

Try, check, and revise or write an equation to solve

Answer 1

Answer: 7 and 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two whole numbers be x and y.

From the question given, we can form an equation as:

x × y = 294 ........ i

x/y = 6 .......... ii

From equation ii

x/y = 6

x = 6y

Put the value of x back into equation i

x × y = 294

6y × y = 294

6y² = 294

y² = 294/6

y² = 49

y = ✓49

y = 7

Since x × y = 294 and y = 7,

x = 294/7

x = 42

The numbers are 7 and 42.
