    numbers is six times the other, then find the difference between the given two numbers.
    A 34.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 25.1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 16.1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 29.8 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let us assume one of the numbers is 'x'

    Then, another number is = 6 ├Ч x = '6x'

    So, x ├Ч 6x = 288

    Or, 6x┬▓ = 288

    Or, x┬▓ = 48

    Or, x = 6.9 {Since the numbers are positive}

    Required difference = {6 ├Ч (6.9) - 6.9} = (41.4 - 6.9) = 34.5
