let the first no. be x. And other number is 2x+6 as it is given that a no. is 6 more than two times another no. x+(2x+6)=24 => 3x=24-6=18=> x=18/3=6. Hope it helps you...Mark me as Brainliest.

Answer 2

one number=x
other number = 2x+6
sum = 24
2x+x+6=24
3x+6=24
3x=24-6
=18
x=18/3
=6
one number =6
other number = 6×2+6
= 12+6
=18
