The product of two numbers is 1296. If one number is 16 times the others find the numbers.
Given:
The product of two numbers is 1296.
One number is 16 times the other.
To do:
We have to find the numbers.
Solution:
Let one of the numbers be $x$.
This implies,
The other number $=16\times x$
Therefore,
$16x \times x=1296$
$16x^2=1296$
$x^2=\frac{1296}{16}$
$x^2=81$
$x=\sqrt{81}$
$x=9$
$16\times x=16\times9$
$=144$
The numbers are $9$ and $144$.
