Answer 1

The numbers are 7 and 4

7-4= 3
7*4= 28

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 28

x + y = 28x/y = 3, x = 3y

x + y = 28x/y = 3, x = 3ySubstitute:

x + y = 28x/y = 3, x = 3ySubstitute:3y + y = 28

x + y = 28x/y = 3, x = 3ySubstitute:3y + y = 284y = 28

x + y = 28x/y = 3, x = 3ySubstitute:3y + y = 284y = 28y = 7

x + y = 28x/y = 3, x = 3ySubstitute:3y + y = 284y = 28y = 7x = 21
