Solution

Given that, 20 divide into two parts such that three times the square of one part exceeds other by 10.

Let, the numbers are x and 20x

Now,

3x2=(20x)+10

3x2=20x+10

3x2+x30=0

3x2+10x9x30=0

x(x+10)3(x+10)=0

(x+10)(x3)=0

x=10or3

-10 can’t be exist left it

Consider x=3

Now required numbers are x=3 and 20-x=17

Hence, this is the answer.
