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 question does not specify what it is that you want! The smaller number, the larger number, their sum, mean, product?
Anyway, the smaller number was 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.
The larger number is 12.

Numbers don't stop in either direction. If you subtract a larger number from a smaller one, the answer will be negative.
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.
Smaller number = x Larger number = 2x x+2x=18. 3x=18 x=6 The numbers are 6 and 12.

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.
subtract the smaller number from the larger number.
The larger number is 12.
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.
