The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the sum of two numbers based on the given statements, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Variables Let the bigger number be \( x \) and the smaller number be \( y \). ### Step 2: Analyze Statement A From Statement A, we know: - The bigger number is greater than the smaller number by 6. - This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ x = y + 6 \] ### Step 3: Analyze Statement B From Statement B, we have: - \( 40\% \) of the smaller number is equal to \( 30\% \) of the bigger number. - This can be expressed as: \[ 0.4y = 0.3x \] - To eliminate the decimals, we can multiply both sides by 100: \[ 40y = 30x \] - Rearranging gives: \[ 4y = 3x \] ### Step 4: Substitute from Statement A into Statement B Now we can substitute the expression for \( x \) from Statement A into the equation from Statement B: - Substitute \( x = y + 6 \) into \( 4y = 3x \): \[ 4y = 3(y + 6) \] - Distributing the 3: \[ 4y = 3y + 18 \] - Rearranging gives: \[ 4y - 3y = 18 \implies y = 18 \] ### Step 5: Find \( x \) Now that we have \( y \), we can find \( x \): - Using \( x = y + 6 \): \[ x = 18 + 6 = 24 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the Sum Now we can find the sum of the two numbers: \[ x + y = 24 + 18 = 42 \] ### Conclusion The sum of the two numbers is \( 42 \). ---
