There are 2 ways you can solve this: guess and check or make an equation. Since the numbers (20 and 4) are fairly small it may just be easier to guess and check in this scenario. But if you wanted to create an equation this is how it would be done:
1) x+y=20 and x/y=4 are your two equations.
2) Simplify so that you only have x in both equations.
x=20-y and x=4y are your two new equations.
3) Since they both equal the same thing (x) you can combine them.
20-y=4y
4) Solve for y.
20=5y
4=y
5) You now know that 4 is one of your answers, so 16 must be the other.
2 and 3. 2 + 6 = 8, the sum. 6 / 2 = 3, the quotient.
What to whole numbers have a sum of 12 and quotient of 3?
It would be possible to find two numbers whose sum is 7, two others whose difference is 7,two others whose product is 7, and two others whose quotient is 7.But if you're looking for numbers that equal 7, then 7 is your only choice.
It's quite possible to find two numbers whose sum is 308, two others whose differenceis 308, two more whose product is 308, and another two whose quotient is 308.But if you're looking for numbers that equal 308, then your only choice is 308 .
-- Add the two numbers. -- Divide their sum by 2 . -- The quotient is the mean of the two numbers.

find two positive numbers whose product is a maximum. 1.) the sum is s.
the quotient of 2 numbers is 8. The sum of the 2 numbersis 72. What are the 2 numbers
For a quotient to exist, there needs to be two numbers of a division sum.
asked to work out the product of two or more numbers, then you need to multiply the numbers together. If you are asked to find the sum of two or more numbers, then you need to add the numbers together.
The numbers are 18 and 20.
