Question: 329
7. Two numbers add to 1,500. One number is 4 times the size of the other. What are the two numbers?
- A. 300, 1,200
- B. 200, 1,300
- C. 500, 1,000
- D. 750, 750
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
A is correct. You are told that two numbers add to 1,500 and that one of the two is 4 times the size of other. Create an equation:
x + 4x = 1,500
Solve for x.
5x = 1,500
x = 300
4x = 1,200
So the two numbers are 300 and 1,200.
