Question

A number is 6 times another number and their difference is 30. What are the numbers? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=36

y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y

Condition 1

x=6y ----------(1)

Condition 2

x-y=30 ------------(2)

Putting 1 in 2

6y-y=30

5y=30

Dividing both sides by 5

y=6

Now

Putting y=6 in 1

We get

x=6(6)

x=36
