Question

Divide 110 between two friends so that one gets 16 more than the other. solve the equation ​

Answer 1

47 and 63

Explanation:

Let x be the number one friend gets.

This means the second friend will get x + 16

x + x + 16 = 110

2x + 16 = 110

2x = 94

x = 47

One friend gets 47, and the other gets 63
