Answer» Answer: LET one NUMBER be X and other number be y According to question 6x/100 = 8y/100 = x + y = 3500 = 8x + 8y = 3500 * 8 =6x -8y = 0 Solve the equation = 14x = 3500 * 8 = x =2000 And y = 1500

Answer:

LET one NUMBER be X and other number be y

According to question

6x/100 = 8y/100

= x + y = 3500

= 8x + 8y = 3500 * 8

=6x -8y = 0

Solve the equation

= 14x = 3500 * 8

= x =2000

And y = 1500
