Question

The diffeunce bekireen hwo numbers is26 and one number is three times theother. Find them​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let one of the number be x.

The other number will be 3x.

As per given condition :-

$3x - x = 26 \\ \\ 2x = 26 \\ \\ x = \frac{26}{2} \\ \\ x = 13$

So the numbers are x = 13

And 3x = 3 × 13

= 39

Answer 2

Let the larger no. be x and

the smaller no. be y

x - y = 26

x = 3y

Substitute x = 3y -

3y - y = 26

2y = 26

y = 26/2

y = 13

x = 3y

= 3*13

= 39

Therefore, x = 39 and y = 13
