Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Given :

• Difference between two numbers is 26 .
• Larger number is three times the smaller .

To Find :

• The Numbers .

Solution :

$\longmapsto\tt{Let\:Smaller\:Number\:be=x}$

As Given that larger number is three times Smaller . So ,

$\longmapsto\tt{Larger\:Number=3x}$

A.T.Q :

$\longmapsto\tt{3x-x=26}$

$\longmapsto\tt{2x=26}$

$\longmapsto\tt{x=\cancel\dfrac{26}{2}}$

$\longmapsto\tt\bf{x=13}$

Value of x is 13 ...

Therefore :

$\longmapsto\tt{Smaller\:Number=x}$

$\longmapsto\tt\bf{13}$

$\longmapsto\tt{Larger\:Number=3(13)}$

$\longmapsto\tt\bf{39}$

VERIFICATION :

$\longmapsto\tt{3x-x=26}$

$\longmapsto\tt{3(13)-13=26}$

$\longmapsto\tt{39-13=26}$

$\longmapsto\tt\bf{26=26}$
