The sum of two numbers is 109. If four times the smaller number is subtracted from the larger number, the result is 4. What are the two numbers?

Respuesta :

Let the numbers be x&y

X+y=109

Taking a as the smallest number we multiply by 4

So according to the question you will have this equation

Y(as the largest number) -4x=4. Y-4x=4

Then find y

Y=4x+4

Substitute y on the first equation to get a

X+y=109

X+4x+4=109

X=21

21+y=109

Y=88
