Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two numbers be x ,

so ,

3x - x = 28

4x = 28

x = 28/4

x = 7

smaller number is 7

now bigger number is 3 times smaller number ,

3 × 7 = 21

21 + 7 = 28 ------------ THIS IS PROOF

Answer 2

Answer:

Acc. to question,

Let the number be x

So, the larger number = 3x

Then, Acc to question,

$2x = 28$

$x = 28/2 = 14$

Hence, the no. is 14

Other No.

$= 14 \times 3 = 42$

No. s = 14 and 42
