Answer 1

Answer:

Difference between two numbers is 26 and one number is three times the other. Hence, the numbers are 13 and 39.

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the two numbers be x and y.

According to the question,

X-y=26

X=3y

Substitute the value of x in equation 1,

3y-y=26

2y=26

Y=26/2

Y=13

X=3y

X=3x13

X=39

The two numbers are 39 and 13.
