=) 3x-2x = 66+9
=) x = 75
Ans:- The larger number = 75
The smaller number = (75-3) = 72

Answer:
x-y=3 --------(1)
let smaller number be y and greater be X
2x+3y=66 ----------(2)
multiply (1) by 3
3x-3y=9 --------------(3)
add (2) and (3)
3x - 3y =9
+ 2x+ 3y =66
5x =75
x = 15
put x=15 in (1)
15-y=3
y= 12
