Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 19 Given: The product of two numbers is 228 and one number is 7 more than the second number Concept Used: Basic concept of arithmetic Calculation: Let the first number be x then second number will be (x + 7) and their product is 228 ∴ x × (x + 7) = 228 ⇒ x2 + 7x – 228 = 0 ⇒ x2 + 19x – 12x – 228 = 0 ⇒ (x + 19) × (x - 12) = 0 ⇒ x = -19 and 12 So, the greatest number is 19 Hence, option (4) is correct |
