The numbers are 9 and 45.

a = 5b

a - 18 = 3b which becomes a = 3b + 18

Therefore:

5b = 3b + 18

18 = 2b

b = 9

a = 45

All even numbers greater than 2 are composite true or false?

True.Composite numbers are positive whole numbers that can be divided with no remainder by something other than 1 and themselves.Even numbers can be divided without remainder by 2, so any even number greater than 2 can be divided without remainder by at least three numbers: 1, 2, and the number itself. That makes the number composite.

When two whole numbers are subtracted does it affect the difference?

When you subtract one number from another, the result is called the difference. What does your question mean? If by "when two whole numbers are subtracted" you mean that you subtract one whole number from the minuend, and then you subtract another whole number from the difference, then the answer you get is another difference. In effect, you have one minuend and two subtrahends.
