1. Difference of 2 number is 11 and their product is 60, find the sum of numbers  ?

If you try to solve this question without using equation, it will consume too much time.. so use this equation..


(X + Y)² = (X - Y)² + 4 XY


We have     X-Y = 11  and  XY = 60 

hence

(X + Y)² = 11² + 4 x 60

(X + Y)² = 121 + 240

(X + Y)² =  361

X + Y = 19
