Question

​

Answer 1

Answer:

$1 \frac{27}{42}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of two numbers is

$17 \frac{1}{4}$

If one of the two numbers =

$10 \frac{1}{2}$

Let x be the other number.

$10 \frac{1}{2}x = 17 \frac{1}{4}$

$\frac{69}{4} = \frac{21}{2} x$

Multiply both sides by 4

69 = 42x

Divide both sides by 42

$x = \frac{69}{42} = 1 \frac{27}{42}$
