Answer :

Answer:

[tex]1 \frac{27}{42} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of two numbers is

[tex]17 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

If one of the two numbers =

[tex]10 \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

Let x be the other number.

[tex]10 \frac{1}{2}x = 17 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{69}{4} = \frac{21}{2} x[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 4

69 = 42x

Divide both sides by 42

[tex]x = \frac{69}{42} = 1 \frac{27}{42} [/tex]
