Question

Answer 1

Answer:

Look below carefully

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number 1 be = x

Let's assume that x is smaller.

Let number 2 be = y

Therefore, y - x = 8

Therefore, y = 8 + x

Also, 2 + y = 3x

Therefore, 2 + 8 + x = 3x

Therefore, 10 = 3x - x

                      = 2x

Therefore, x = 10/2

                    = 5

Therefore, y = 8 + 5

                    = 13

Therefore, smaller number = 5

And, bigger number = 13
