Step-by-step explanation:
Let number be n , n>0
Difference between possitive integers =36
Another number be n−36
Quotient when one is divided by another =4
n/n−36
=4
n=4n−144
3n=144
n=48
∴48,12 are the two positive integers.

Let one positive integer be x.
⇒Other integer=x-36.
Quotient when x is divided by (x-36)=4
According to the question:
x−36
x
=4
⇒x=4(x-36)x=4(x−36)
⇒x=4x-144x=4x−144
⇒4x-x=1444x−x=144
⇒3x=1443x=144
1st no=48 and 2nd no:48-36=12
