Answer 2

Finding the numbers

Answer: Two required numbers are 13 and 39.

Explanation:

given that difference between two numbers is 26

And one number is three times the other.

Need to find the number

let assume the smaller number = x

so as the difference between two number is 26 , so bigger number - x = 26

⇒bigger number = 26 + x = x + 26

So numw we have smaller number as x and bigger number as x + 26

given that one number is three times the other means bigger number is three times the smaller one.

⇒ bigger number = 3 × smaller one

⇒ x + 26 = 3 × x

⇒ x + 26 = 3x

⇒ 26 = 3x -2x

⇒26 = 2x

⇒x = 26/2 = 13

and x + 26 = 13 + 26 = 39

so smaller number is x = 13 and bigger number = x + 26 = 13 + 26 = 39.

Hence two required numbers are 13 and 39.
