Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b=30

a=30-b------1

&a-b=20

a=20+b-----2

From eqn 1 and 2, we get

30-b=20+b

or, 10=2b

b=5

Now, a=20+5

a=25

Therefore, a/b=25/5

=5

Using a system of equation, the value of a/b obtained from the values of a and b calculated is 5

The system of equations:

  • a + b = 30 - - - (1)
  • a - b = 20 - - - (2)

From (1) :

a = 30 - b - - - (3)

Substituting a = 30 - b into (2)

30 - b - b = 20

30 - 2b = 20

30 - 20 = 2b

10 = 2b

b = 5

From (3) :

a = 30 - 5

a = 25

Hence,

a/b = 25 / 5 = 5

Hence, the value of a/b is 5
