Solve the following pairs of equations

Given, pair of linear equations is


On multiplying both sides by LCM (3, 4) = 12, we get


…(i)


and


On multiplying both sides by LCM
(6, 8) = 24, we get


…(ii)


Now, adding Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get


24x = 144


x = 6


Now, put the value of x in Eq. (i), we get





Hence, the required values of x and y are 6 and 8, respectively.
