Hi, here's your answer.
Let the greater number be'x'and the smaller number be 'y'.
So, according to the given conditions,
x-y=26------(1)
x=3y---------(2)
Substituting (2) in (1),
3y-y=26
2y=26
y=13
Substituting this value of y in (2),
x=3×13=39
So,the numbers are 13 and 39.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
