Answer 1

Dear student

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{It}\mathrm{is}\mathrm{given}\mathrm{that}\mathrm{product}\mathrm{of}\mathrm{two}\mathrm{numbers}\mathrm{is}9\frac{3}{5}=\frac{48}{5} \\ \mathrm{and}\mathrm{one}\mathrm{number}\mathrm{is}9\frac{3}{7}=\frac{66}{7} \\ \mathrm{Let}\mathrm{the}\mathrm{other}\mathrm{number}\mathrm{be}\mathrm{x} \\ \therefore \frac{48}{5}=\frac{66}{7}\times \mathrm{x} \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{x}=\frac{48}{5}\times \frac{7}{66} \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{x}=\frac{56}{55} \\ \Rightarrow \mathrm{x}=1\frac{1}{55} \end{gathered}$$
