  1. Answer:

    suppose x and y are two divided

    parts of 4500. then

    x+y=4500 __ (1)

    given

    5% of x = 10% of y

    100

    5x

    =

    100

    10y

    x=2y

    2y+y=4500

    3y=4500

    y=1500

    x+1500=4500

    x=4500−1500

    x=3000

    hence the 4500 is been divided into

    two parts of 1500 and 3000.
