hello users..........

solution;:-

let the first number= x
& 2nd = y

here According to question ,
x-y= 7
&
6y+x =77

now
solving both equations we get
7y =70
=> y = 10

put this in equation
x-y= 7
=> x-10= 7
=> x= 7+10= 17

hence ,
larger number = 17
&
smaller number= 10
Answer

Ankit1408: in x-y= 7 there x= 7+y and put this into 6y+x= 77
Ankit1408: we get 7y+7= 77
Ankit1408: =>7 y= 70

let the numbers are X and Y.
now accordingly X-Y= 7..........(1)
and (6×Y)+X= 77
6×Y=77-X
Y=(77-X)/6.....(2)
putting the value of Y from eqn 2 in 1
X-(77-X)/6=7
6X+X=77+42
X=17
Y=17-7=10.
