Answer» The sum of two numbers is 9 and the sum of their reciprocal is 1/2.Let the numbers be x and y respectively.Sum of numbers is 9.⇒ x + y = 9.... (i)⇒ y = 9 - x .... (ii)Sum of reciprocals is 1/2.⇒\xa0.... (iii)Now, on solving (iii),Putting the value of (i) and (ii) here, we get -Hence, the required numbers are 6 and 3. By not going to solve whole we can say that 3+6=9 and by its reciprocal we are getting 1/2 |
