Please write your questions in english. Anyway, if google translate got it right, you're looking for two numbers a and b, with ratio 3 and sum -16.


From the information about the ratio, we can deduce



(a)/(b) =3 \implies a = 3b


Plug this expression inside the one of the sum to get



a+b = -16 \implies 3b+b = -16 \implies 4b = -16 \implies b = -4


And since
a = 3b, we have
a = 3(-4) = -12
