Answer 1

Answer:

x=18 y=12

Step-by-step explanation:

let x , y be numbers

The difference of two numbers is 6.

x-y=6----(1)

One-third the larger one is smaller than  two-thirds of the smaller one by 2.

let x be larger y be smaller

2/3*y-1/3*x=2

2y-x=6---(2) by solving Equation (1) and (2)

x=18 y=12
