Rahul kumar.
F1+F2=20-------> (1).
14F1-6F2=20-----> (2).
Solving equation (1)& (2).
F1 = 5N.
F2 = 15N.
F1+F2=20-------> (1).
14F1-6F2=20-----> (2).
Solving equation (1)& (2).
F1 = 5N.
F2 = 15N.

f1+f2 = 20 --->1.
Moment of the resultant about a point shall be equal to moment of the forces about the same point. Therefore take moment of the forces on a point abve resultant.
R*0 = F1*14-F2*6 ------>2.
Solving above two eqn.
F2 = 15N F1 = 5 N.

Nothing the method is used here, It is simple, If a number of forces are applied on a body, then all the forces are replaced by a resultant force (algebraic sum of all forces). Here, there is no mean of distances given.

I'm not understanding what method you applied to get these answers. What formula was used?
