A three digit number is divided by another three digit number gives 3.724. What are the two numbers?

the numbers are 250 and 931

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two numbers of 3 digits, A and B such that:

A/B = 3.724

A = 3.724*B

now we can divide the 3.724 in two parts

3.724 = 3 + 0.724

A = (3 + 0.724)*B = 3*B + 0.724*B

So, for now we want to find a number B of 3 digits (i will try to find the smallest possible value of B, because we need to multiplicate B by 3.724 to find A), such that:

0.724*B is an integer.

for example, we can start at B = 1000, and then we will start to reduce the value of B

0.724*1000 = 7240 is an integer, this is an even number, this means that we can take B = 500 and we still will get an integer number.

0.724*500 = 362.

Again, we have an even number, so we can take B = 250 and the result will be also an integer number.

0.724*250 = 181.

Ok, stop here, we can suppose B = 250, then we have:

A = 3.074*B = 3.724*250 = 931

Then the numbers are 250 and 931
