Question

the difference between of two positive numbers is 69 the
quotient obtained on dividing one by he other is 4 find the
number

Srivatsan C · Accepted Answer

THE QUOTIENT OBTAINED ON DIVIDING ONE BY THE OTHER IS 4 THEN ONE
NUMBER IS 4 TIMES THE OTHER LET THE SMALLER NUMBER BE X SO , BIGGER
NUMBER = 4X
4X / X = 4 THE SECOND CLUE IS CONFORMED NOW , USING THE FIRST
CLUE , WE GET ,
4X - X = 69
3X = 69
X = 69 / 3
X = 23
SMALLER NUMBER = X = 23
BIGGER NUMBER = 4X = 4 * X = 4 * 23 = 92

the difference between of two positive numbers is 69. the quotient obtained on dividing one by he other is 4. find the number.
