Answer 1

Answer:

let the number be = x

ATQ

8x - x = 56

7x = 56

x = 56/7

x = 8

Therefore , the numbers are

8x = 8*8 = 64

x = 8

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 8 , y = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one number be x

Second number we will find after 1st

This is because we cannot find two variables in one equation and the relation between both is there so, we can find out

8x = y

8x-x= 56 (explained above)

7x = 56

x = 56\ 7

x = 8

hence, y = 8 x 8

y = 64
