What two numbers have a product of 25 and a quotient of 5?

Here is how to get the answer to "What two numbers have a product of 25 and a quotient of 5?" We show you step-by-step how find the answer so you can solve problems like this on your own in the future.

We will call the two numbers we are looking for x and y, and we will start by making two equations like this:

Equation 1: Two numbers have a product of 25, means:

x • y = 25

Equation 2: Two numbers have a quotient of 5, means:

x / y = 5
x = 5y

Then, we put Equation 2 into Equation 1. We do this by substituting x in x • y = 25 with 5y, like this:

x • y = 25
5y • y = 25
y = 2.236068

Finally, since y = 2.236068, we put 2.236068 into Equation 1 by substituting y in x • y = 25 with 2.236068, like this:

x • 2.236068 = 25
x = 11.18034

Thus, the answer is "2.236068 and 11.18034" as illustrated here:

11.18034 • 2.236068 = 25

11.18034 / 2.236068 = 5

Note: Answers are rounded up to the nearest 6 decimals if necessary, so the answers may not be exact.
