Answer:

  • 1411
  • 1079

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smallest share.

  8.5%(x) = 6.5%(2490 -x)

  15x = 16185 . . . . . . . multiply by 100, add 6.5x

  x = 1079 . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

Then the other share is ...

  2490 -1079 = 1411

The numbers are 1411 and 1079.
