let one number is x
other number = 3x
sum = x + 3x = 124
4x = 124
x = 124/4 = 31
3x = 31×3 = 93
numbers are 31 and 93
other number = 3x
sum = x + 3x = 124
4x = 124
x = 124/4 = 31
3x = 31×3 = 93
numbers are 31 and 93

let the first number be 'x'
let the 2nd number be '3x'
According to question---
x+3x=124
4x =124
x=124/4
x=31
Therefore 1st number 'x'=31
2nd number '3x'=3X31=93
let the 2nd number be '3x'
According to question---
x+3x=124
4x =124
x=124/4
