Question

The difference between two nos. is 26 and one no. is 3 times to other. Find them. (From the pair and and solve).​

Answer 1

Answer:

• The two numbers are -13 and -39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

• The difference between two nos. is 26.
• One no. is 3 times to other.

To Find,

• The Numbers.

Solution,

Let's,

• The first number = x
• The second number = y

According to question,

x - y = 26 •••[1]

3x = y

3x - y = 0 •••[2]

Finding the value of x from Equation [1],

x - y = 26 •••[1]

x = 26 + y •••[3]

Substituting the value of x in Equation [2],

3x - y = 0 •••[2]

3(26 + y) - y = 0

78 + 3y - y = 0

2y = -78

y = -39

Putting the value of y in Equation [3],

x = 26 + y •••[3]

x = 26 - 39

x = -13

Required Answer,

• The two numbers are -13 and -39.

Answer 2

• According to the question, we are given that there are two numbers and the difference between the two numbers is 26. Also, one number is three times the other. ... Therefore, the two numbers are 13 and 39
