Question

The product of two numbers is 2.73. If one of them is 1.3, then what is the other number?

Answer 1

Let other number is x

According to question

1.3x = 2.73

x = $\frac{2.73}{1.3}$

= 2.73 = $\frac{273}{100}$ and 1.3 = $\frac{13}{10}$

= $\frac{273}{100}$$÷$$\frac{13}{10}$

= $\frac{273}{100}$$\times$$\frac{10}{13}$

=$\frac{273}{130}$

= 2.1
