- 270
If Larger number=x, Smaller number=y
x-y=1365 ---(i) &
6y+15=x ---(ii)
Solving (i) & (ii), x=1635 , y=270 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 270
6y+15=x
6y+15-y=1365
y=270 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- larger no.=x
smaller no=y
so, x-y=1365
again,x/y=6 so,x=6y,
6y-y=1365
so,5y=1365
y=273.
so smaller no. is 273.
