One number is eight more than twice another if their difference is 25. The larger number is 42
The numbers are 25 and 17
The square root of 625 is 25, and 2 less than 25 is 23.
let x be one number and y be the other The first thing given is that x is 3 less than twice y so x=2y-3 and x+y=39 so x=39-y and substitute this into the first equation a 39-y=2y-3 42=3y y=14 and x=39-14 or 25 Answer x=25 and y=14 Now lets check it 25 is 3 less than 2x14 (YES) 14+25=39 (YES) Done
The number between 25 and 40 is 26. This can be determined by recognizing that the number must be greater than 25 but less than 40, and the next whole number after 25 is 26. Therefore, 26 is the correct answer.
