Question 1: How many such positive integers exist so that if the unit digit of the original integer is removed, the ratio of the new number to the original one becomes 1/14?
Solution:
Let,
X = tens digit
Y = units digit
X/(10X + Y) = 1/14
4X = Y
Y must be a one-digit multiple of 4, either 4 or 8
Then, X must be either 1 or 2
∴ 1/(10 × 1 + 4) = 1/14
And 2/(10 × 2 + 8) = 1/14
So the numbers are 14 and 28
