Answer 1

Answer:

hi FRIEND

Step-by-step explanation:

let the biggest number be x

and let the smaller number be y.

Then

x-y=8-------------------------------1

x+2=3y------------------------------2

by subsituition method

x=8+y [from 1]------------------3

putting the value of 1 in 2

8+y+2=3y

10=3y-y

10=2y

y=10/2=5

putting the value of y in 3

x=5+4

x=13.
