$\sf{\huge{Answer}}}$

$<i><b>$

let x y be the two number such that x>y

ATQ =

x - y = 26 -------( 1 )

& x= 3y -----------( 2 )

using x = 3y in -------( 1 )

3y - y = 26

2y = 26

$y = \frac{26}{2} = 13$

y = 13

substitution y = 13 in equation ii)

x = 13 × 3

x = 39 .

The two numbers are 13 and 39 .
