Question

Find two consecutive numbers where thrice the first number is more than twice the second number by 5

Answer 1

hey !!
Let the two consecutive numbers be 'x' and 'x+1'
According to the question,
3x=2(x+1)+5
-->3x=2x+2+5
-->3x-2x=2+5
-->x=7
Hence, the numbers are x=7 and (x+1)=8 ANS.

Answer 2

Answer:

Numbers are  7 & 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Find two consecutive numbers where thrice the first number is more than twice the second number by 5

Let say Two number are  X  & X + 1

Thrice of First number = 3X

Twice of the seond number = 2(X + 1) = 2X + 2

thrice the first number is more than twice the second number by 5

3X = 2X + 2 + 5

=> X = 7

X + 1 = 8

Numbers are  7 & 8
