The second number is six times the first number.
Work out the two numbers.
Write your answers on one line.

The two numbers are 3 and 18, if the sum of two number is 21 and the second number is six times the first number.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

                  The sum of two numbers is 21

                   The second number is six times the first number

Step:1

          Let, m - First number

                  n - Second number

Step:2

        From given,

                  n - 6m     ( The second number is six times the first number )

        Equation becomes,

                  Sum = m + n

        Where,

                      21 = m + ( 6m )

                       21 = 7m

                       m = 3

        Substitute m value n becomes,

                        n = 6m

                           = (6 × 3)

                      n  = 18

Result:

          The two numbers are 3 and 18, if the sum of two number is 21 and the second number is six times the first number.
