Two angles are supplementary if their sum is​ 180°. The larger angle measures three degrees more than twice the measure of a smaller angle. If x represents the measure of the smaller angle and these two angles are​ supplementary, find the measure of each angle.

This problem doesn't quite add up. Are you sure the question asks for the larger angle to be 3 degrees more? I don't understand it myself lol, because the sum of the two is 183 instead of 180.
