Question

If the product of any two rational numbers is 2 and one of them is 1/7, find the other

Answer 1

14

Explanation:

1/7*X=2

X=2/(1/7)

X=2*7

X=14

Answer 2

Given :-

➪ Product of two rational numbers = 2

➪ One of the number =
`(1)/(7)`

To find:-

➪ The other number.

`\huge{\boxed{\boxed{\tt{\purple{Solution\:⤵}}}}}`

`\sf\blue{The \:other \:number \:is\: 14.}` ✅

Step-by-step explanation:-

❥ Let the other number be
`x`.

❥ As per the question, we have

`product \: of \: two \: rational \: numbers \: = 2 \\ ⇢  (1)/(7) * x = 2 \\ ⇢ x = 2 * 7 \\ ⇢ x = 14`

`\sf\red{Therefore,\:the\:other\: number\: is\: 14.}`

To verify:-

`(1)/(7) * 14 = 2 \\➪ \: (14)/(7) = 2 \\ ➪ \: 2 = 2\\ ➪ \: L. H. S. = R. H. S.`

Hence verified.
