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]
