      Question

      The average of two numbers is 6 more than the smaller

      number among them. If the greater number is 100% more than the smaller number, then find the sum of the two numbers.
      A 32 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 34 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 36 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 38 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the smaller number be 4x.
      Greater = 2 × 4x = 8x.
      ATQ, 4x + 6 = (4x + 8x) / 2 = 6x
      ⇒ x = 3
      Sum = 12x = 12 × 3 = 36.
