Divide 54 into two parts such that one part is 2/7 of the others

Answer» LET PARTS are X and 2x/7




Their SUM = 54

x +  \frac{2x}{7}  = 54 \\  \\  =>  \frac{7x + 2x}{7}  = 54 \\  \\  =>  \frac{9x}{7}  = 54 \\  \\   => x =  \frac{54  \times 7}{9}  \\  \\ =>  x = 6 \times 7 \\  \\  => x = 42




Hence, NUMBERS are

x = 42 \\  \\  \frac{2x}{7}  =  \frac{2 \times 42}{7}  =  \frac{2 \times 6}{1}  = 12
