Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x be the larger and y be the smaller number

The difference between two numbers is 9

x-y=9

x=9+y...........(1)

Six times the larger number is 15 times the smaller number

6x=15y..........(2)

Substitute the value of x from (1) to (2)

6(9+y)=15y..........(2)

 

54+6y=15y

6y-15y=-54

-9y=-54

Divide by -9 both sides of the above equation

-9y/-9=-54/-9

y=6

Put the value of y in (1)

x=9+y

x=9+6

x=15

Numbers are 15 and 6
