will be three times the smaller number. Find the numbers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

10 -2 =8. 8+2=10 the same number repeat again .

hope it is clear

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two numbers be x and y

let x be the bigger number

x-y=8     -1

x+2=3y

x+2/3=y      -2

put 2 in 1

x-(x+2/3)=8

3x-x-2=24

2x-2=24

take 2 common

x-1=12

x=13

put valu of x in equation 2

13+2/3=y

15/3=y

5=y
