Question

A numben is 6 monce than two timet another



number
The sum of the two numbeus 24 find the numbers​

Answer 1

• Let the no.s be x and y,
• From the first statement,

x=2y+6

• From the second statement,

x+y=24

• Substituting 'x' from the first equation to the second you get,

2y+6+y=24

3y+6=24

3y=18

y=6

• Therefore,

x+y=24

x+6=24

x=18

• The no.s are 18 and 6

Answer 2

Answer:

The two numbers are 6 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be = x...............(1)

The second number is = 2x+6........(2)

According to the condition,

x+(2x+6)= 24

3x+6= 24

3x=24-6

3x=18

$x = \frac{18}{3}$

x=6

2x+6= 2(6)+ 6........ [From equation (1) & (2)]

=12+6

= 18
