Answer:
2 and 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the greater number be x and the smaller number be y.
According to the first condition, x – y = 3 …(i)
According to the second condition, 3x + 2y = 19 …(ii)
Multiplying equation (i) by 2, we get 2x – 2y = 6 …
(iii) Adding equations (ii) and (iii), we get Substituting x = 5 in equation (i), we get 5 – y = 3
∴ 5 – 3 = y
∴ y = 2 ∴ The required numbers are 5 and 2.
