Question

The product of two positive numbers is 0.60. If one number is 115\frac 1{15}​ th of the other, then what are the two numbers?

A.

0.6, 1.0

B.

0.4, 1.5

C.

0.2, 3.0

D.

0.3, 2.0

Correct option is C

Given:
Product of two numbers = 0.60
One number is 115\frac{1}{15}​​th of the other.
Solution:
let the other number be x.
then,
the product of the two numbers:
x×x15=0.60 =>x215=0.60 =>x2=0.60×15=9x=9=3x \times \frac{x}{15} = 0.60 \\ \ \\\rArr\frac{x^2}{15} = 0.60 \\ \ \\\rArr x^2 = 0.60 \times 15 =9 \\x = \sqrt{9} ​=3​​
Now,
Second number = x15=315=0.2 \frac{x}{15} = \frac{3}{15} = 0.2 
Thus, the number be  3 , 0.2 .
