Bro just divide 65 by 1-7 and you’ll get 4x whatever equals to 65

Hey there! :)

Answer:

Anna's number = 13.

Olga's number = 52.

Explanation:

We can express this situation as an equation to solve for both of their numbers.

Let x be Anna's number

Let 4x be Olga's number

Their numbers sum up to 65, therefore:

4x + x = 65.

Begin by combining like terms:

5x = 65

Divide both sides by 5:

5x/5 = 65/5

x = 13 = Anna's number.

Find Olga's number by plugging 13 into 4x:

4(13) = 52. This is Olga's number.
