The product of two numbers is 9375 and the quotient, when the larger one is divided by the smaller, is 15. The sum of the numbers is:
A. 380 B. 395
C. 400 D. 425

- Given
xy=9375
x/y=15, So x=15y
Hence 15*y^2=9375
y^2=9375/15=625, Hence y=25 and y=9375/25=375
So the sum of the no. is 25+375=400(option C) - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(22) No(2)
- ans=c(400)
given data is xy=9375...........(I)
and xy=15
then x=15y put the value x in eq (I) then solve the y=25
then x=375 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(2)

- let nos be x and y
x be the larger no and y be the smaller no
given x*y=9375................(1)
x=15y....................(2)
solving both equations we get x=375 and y=25
their sum is 375+25=400

- answer (c) 400
let larger no is = x
smaller no= y
accordng to qstn
x*y=9375-------1
x/y=15---------2
eqtn 1*2
x^2=140625
=> x=375
put the value of x in eqtn 2
then y= 25
su of no=> x+y
375+25= 400 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- ans is c. 400
explanation: consider 2 no's as A and B. in this consider A as larger and B as smaller..thus by !st statement AB=9375
and by 2nd statement A/B=B if u evaluate these 2 eqn you wil get the values of A as 375 and B as 25 and so the sum wil be 400 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
