    Question

    The product of two positive numbers is 300. If one of the

    numbers is five times the other, then find the difference between the given two numbers.
    A 31 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 51 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 61 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 71 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let us assume one of the numbers is 'x'

    Then, another number is = 5 × x = '5x'

    So, x × 5x = 300

    Or, 5x² = 300

    Or, x² = 60

    Or, x = 7.75 {Since the numbers are positive}

    Required difference = {5 × (7.75) - 7.75} = (38.75 - 7.75) = 31
