Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Define x:
Let one of the number be x
The other number is 3x
Solve x:
The product of the two numbers is 18.75
x(3x) = 18.75
3x² = 18.75
x² = 6.25
x = √6.25
x = 2.5
Find the numbers:
one of the number = x = 2.5
the other number is 3x = 3(2.5) = 7.5
Answer: The greater number is 7.5

Answer:
let the smaller no. =x
larger no. = 3x

x×3x = 18.75
3x^2=18.75
x^2=18.75/3 = 6.25
x=2.5
so the larger no. =3×2.5 = 7.5
