Addends

Number 839 divide into the two addends that the first was 17 greater than 60% of the second. Determine these addends.

Correct answer:

x =  325.25
y =  513.75

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=839-(839-17)\mathrm{/}(1+60\mathrm{/}100)=325.25$

$$\begin{gathered} x+y=839 \\ x=17+{\displaystyle \frac{60}{100}}y \\ 17+{\displaystyle \frac{60}{100}}y+y=839 \\ y={\displaystyle \frac{839-17}{1+{\displaystyle \frac{60}{100}}}}=513.75 \\ x=839-y=325.25 \end{gathered}$$
