   To Solve:

   • Find the original two number.

   Given:

   • the difference between two numbers is ten.
   • their sum is 4 time the smaller number.

   Solⁿ:

   • Let greater no. be = x

   • Let smaller no. be = x

   ATQ;

   » x – y = 10 ———(1)

   » x + y = 4y

   x = 4y – y

   = x = 3y

   ★ Substitute the value of x as 3y in eqⁿ 1.

   3y – y = 10

   2y = 10

   → y = 5

   Value of x :

   x – y = 10

   x – 5 = 10

   x = 10 + 5

   → x = 15

   ★ The Numbers Are 5, 15.

2. Answer

   The numbers are 5 and 15

   Solution

   Let the numbers=x,y

   Given,

   x-y=10 (here, you can see that y is the smaller number. otherwise the answer would be negative)

   x+y=4y

   Further simplification:

   x = 3y

   3y – y = 10

   or, y=5

   or, x=3y=15

   Hope it helps!
