Answer:

126 and 114

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers be x and 240-x

240-x-72=x/3

168-x=x/3

504-3x=x

504=4x

x=504/4=126

so the numbers are 126 and 240-126=144

step by step
let the second part is x
first part is x/3-72
240=x+(x/3-72)
240= (3x+x-216)//3.{ by taking LCM}
240*3=4x-216
4x=720+216
4x=936
x= 234

so second no is 234
first no is 234/3-72
= 78-72
= 6
hope this help
