let the one number be x
and another number be y
According to question :
Case 1 : x + y/2 = 5
x + y = 10 ...(1)
Case 2 :
3( x - y ) = 12
x - y = 12/3 =4 ....(2)
x = 10 - y ( from (1) ) ...(3)
putting value of x in (2)
10 - y - y = 4
10 - 2y = 4
2y = 6
y = 6/2 = 3
putting value of y in (3)
x = 10 - 3 = 7
the one number = x = 7
and another number = y = 3
