Find total number pairs of natural numbers that satisfy the equation x+2y = 2xy?
Sol 2xy-x = 2y x(2y-1) =2y => x = 2y/(2y-1) => x = (2y-1+1)/(2y-1) => x = 1+ 1 /(2y-1) For x to be an integer 1/(2y-1) should be an integer value Hence 2y-1 can only take 1 or -1 So y will be 1 or 0. For natural number only 1 is acceptable When y= 1 , then x =2 Hence only 1 solution
