Answer:
197 and 63
Explanation:
Let the second part be x, then
the first part = 3x + 8 ( 8 more then 3 times the second part )
The 2 parts sum to 260
Add the 2 parts of the number and equate to 260, that is
3x + 8 + x = 260 ← simplify the left side
4x + 8 = 260 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
4x = 252 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 63
Hence the first part = 3x + 8 = (3 × 63) + 8 = 189 + 8 = 197
and the second part = x = 63
