let number=x
other number=y
eq1. x+y=11(x-y)
eq2. 3x=24+2y
from eq1
10x=12y
5x=6y
y=5x/6
from eq2
3x=24+2(5x/6)
9x=72+5x
4x=72
x=18
from eq1
3*18=24+2y
54-24=2y
2y=30
y=15
x=18,y=15
other number=y
eq1. x+y=11(x-y)
eq2. 3x=24+2y
from eq1
10x=12y
5x=6y
y=5x/6
from eq2
3x=24+2(5x/6)
9x=72+5x
4x=72
x=18
from eq1
3*18=24+2y
54-24=2y
2y=30
y=15
x=18,y=15
