Question:
the difference between two positive integers is36 the quotient when onr integer is divied by otheris 4 find the integers
Answer:
Let the two numbers are x and y.
Given, x - y = 36 ............1
and x/y = 4
=> x = 4y ..........2
From equation 1, we get
4y - y = 36
=> 3y = 36
=> y = 36/3
=> y = 12
and x = 4*12 {from equation 2}
=> x = 48
So, the two numbers are 12 and 48
