प्रश्न
What least number must be added to each of the numbers 5, 11, 19 and 37, so that they are in proportion?
उत्तर
Let x be the number added to 5, 11, 19, 37.
`(5 + x)/(11 + x) = (19 + x)/(37 + x)`
App. comp. and divi.
`(5 + x + 11 + x)/(5 + x - 11 - x) = (19 + x + 37 + x )/(19 + x - 37 - x)`
`(16 + 2x)/(-6) = (56 + 2x)/(-18)`
3(16 + 2x) = 56 + 2x
6x - 2x = 56 - 48
4x = 8
x = 2.
