Q91 of 107 Page 104

150 has been divided into two parts such that twice the first part is equal to the second part. Find the parts.

Let one part be x, then other part will be 2x as second part is twice the first part.


Since, 150 has been divided into above two parts.


According to the question,


x + 2x = 150


⇒ 3x = 150


⇒


⇒ x = 50


Hence, the first part is 50 and the second part is 2× 50 = 100.
