Let X be one number and Y be the second number So X = 3Y and X + Y = 18 To solve, substitute the value of X from the first equation into the second equation. 3Y + Y = 18 4Y = 18 Y = 4.5 So X = 3*(4.5) = 13.5

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?
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.
The sum of two numbers is 51 the larger number is 23 more than the smaller what are the numbers?
smaller no.14 larger 37
The sum of two numbers is 18 The larger number is twice the smaller number What are they?
Smaller number = x Larger number = 2x x+2x=18. 3x=18 x=6 The numbers are 6 and 12.
The sum of two numbers is The smaller number is less than the larger number What are the numbers?
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.
How do you add two numbers with opposite signs?
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.

Why can you subtract a larger number from a smaller number?
Numbers don't stop in either direction. If you subtract a larger number from a smaller one, the answer will be negative.
Why does smaller area generate increased pressure even with the same sized force?
Pressure is defined as force divided by area. If you divide by a smaller number, you get a larger result. Try it out with some numbers.

When is the GCF of two numbers one of the two 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.
How do you figure out the difference between 2 numbers?
subtract the smaller number from the larger number.
The sum of two numbers is 21 Three times the larger is four times the smaller Find the larger number?
The larger number is 12.
How do you know whenether a number is a multiple of another number?
Divide the smaller number into the larger number. If it comes out evenly with no remainder, the larger number is a multiple of the smaller number. All even numbers are multiples of two.
The sum of two numbers is 63 The smaller number is 23 less than the larger number What are the numbers?
20 and 43
