Question

The difference of two positive numbers is 69. The quotient obtained on dividing one by the other is 4. Find the number.​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=92 y=23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let them be x and y respectively

so given

x-y=69

and

x/y=4  x=4y

so we can write

x-y=69

as

4y-y=69  3y=69 y= 69/3 = 23

now y is 23

so putting in any equation will give the value of x

so

x-23=69 x=92
