Question

one number is three times another if the largest number is subtracted from 60 the result is 5 less than the smaller number subtracted from 55 find the numbers​

Answer 1

-2x+X=-10

X=5

the numbers are. 5 and 15

Answer 2

$\huge\bold\red{SOLUTION}$$\bold\purple{♡FollowMe♡}$

Let the number be x and other be y

y = 3x

60-y = (55-x) - 5

60 - 3x = 50 - x

-3x + x = 50 - 60

-2x = -10

x = 5

y = 5 × 3

y= 15

Thus number are 5 and 15
