how can the number 39 be divided into two parts in order that the sum of 2 upon 3 of one part and 3 upon 4 of the other part is 28

The two numbers are 15 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the two parts be x and y

So according to the question

x + y = 39

(2 ÷ 3) x + (3 ÷ 4)y = 28

or

8x + 9y = 28 × 12

8x + 9 × (39 - x) = 336

-x = 336 - 351

x = 15

And, y = 39 - 15

= 24

Hence, the x and y is 15 and 24 respectively

distance covered by pamela in 9 l of fuel = 99km

let us apply unitary method here.

distance covered by pamela in 1 l of fuel =99/9 =11 km

now let us find distance covered by pamela if she has 12 l of fuel.

distance covered in 12 l = distance covered in 1 l of fuel * 12

we know that distance covered by here in 1 l is 11 km.

so distance covered in 12 l of fuel = 11*12 = 132 km.
