Question

one number is 3 times another number . if 15bis addeed to both the numbers then, one of the new numbers becomes twice the other now number .find the numbers

Answer 1

BE BRAINLY

you should specify which number becomes twice of other

I am assuming the second one as it is more appropriate or ... you know

let first number be 3x and second number as x

if 15 is added,

numbers become 3x + 15 and x + 15

therefore, according to the statement,

$3x + 15 = 2(x + 15) \\ 3x + 15 = 2x + 30 \\ 3x - 2x = 30 - 15 \\ x = 15$
if the first was twice then x would have been -3
