What two numbers have a product of 4 and a quotient of 54?

Here is how to get the answer to "What two numbers have a product of 4 and a quotient of 54?" 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 4, means:

x • y = 4

Equation 2: Two numbers have a quotient of 54, means:

x / y = 54
x = 54y

Then, we put Equation 2 into Equation 1. We do this by substituting x in x • y = 4 with 54y, like this:

x • y = 4
54y • y = 4
y = 0.272166

Finally, since y = 0.272166, we put 0.272166 into Equation 1 by substituting y in x • y = 4 with 0.272166, like this:

x • 0.272166 = 4
x = 14.696938

Thus, the answer is "0.272166 and 14.696938" as illustrated here:

14.696938 • 0.272166 = 4

14.696938 / 0.272166 = 54

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