Question

1. The larger of two numbers is 18 more than twice the smaller number. If the sum of the two numbers is 93, find both numbers.​

Answer 1

Let X be the smaller

Explanation:

the larger is 2X+18 <--- 18 MORE than Twice the smaller

Their total is 93 = 2x + 18 + x = 3x + 18

75 = 3x

x = 25

The smaller is 25

the larger is 68
