∙ 14y agoLet the two numbers by A and B with A>B
Both numbers have 3 as a factor therefore write A = 3a, B = 3b = 9
As the LCM is 72 then AB = 72n as the product of the numbers is a multiple of the LCM.
Then 72n = 3a x 9 = 27a : a/n = 72/27 = 8/3.
This equation holds true when a = 8 and n = 3 (or multiples of these two numbers)
When a = 8, A = 3x8 = 24, A + B = 24 + 9 = 33 which is a number between 30 and 40.
The larger number is 24.

Numbers don't stop in either direction. If you subtract a larger number from a smaller one, the answer will be negative.
When the smaller one is a factor of the larger one. (That also means the larger one is a multiple of the smaller one.) The smaller number is the GCF of both.
If you are asking how many numbers difference is there between two numbers, then it will be positive. If you are referring to subtraction, if the number you are subtracting from is the larger number, it will be positive. If it is smaller it will be negative. 3 - 2 = 1 (3, the number being subtracted from, is larger, so the answer is positive) 2 - 3 = -1 (2, the number being subtracted from, is smaller, so the answer is negative)
subtract the smaller number from the larger number.
The square root of 841
The larger of two numbers is 8 more than 4 times the smaller if the larger number is increased by four times the smaller the result is 40. From this statement, we can calculate the values of the numbers where you get the value of the larger number to be 24 and that of the smaller number to be 4.

Smaller number = x Larger number = 2x x+2x=18. 3x=18 x=6 The numbers are 6 and 12.
Hmmm. Let me see now ... "The smaller number is less than the larger number", eh ? I'm going to have to think that over carefully.
Subtract the absolute value of the smaller number from the absolute value of the larger number. The answer will have the sign of the larger numbers.
When the smaller one is a factor of the larger one. (That also means the larger one is a multiple of the smaller one.) The smaller number is the GCF of both.
