The larger of two numbers is 3 more than the smaller number if, the sum of the numbers is 73. what are the two numbers

Hey there!!

With the question, we know that there are two numbers.

The question states that the larger number is 3 more than the smaller number. And the sum of the two numbers is 73.

Taking into equations.

... Smaller number + Larger number = 73

... Smaller number + Smaller number + 3 = 73

... 2 ( smaller number ) = 73 - 3

... 2 ( smaller number ) = 70

... smaller number = 70 / 2

... smaller number = 35

Hence, the smaller number is 35 and the larger number is smaller number + 3 , which is 38.

Hence, the numbers are 35 and 38

Hope my answer helps!!

341

step-by-step explanation:

all you have to do is 9x31 (which equals 279) and then 20x31 (which equals 620). then you have to subtract. 620-279=341.
