Question

The larger of two numbers is 15 more than three times the smaller number. If the sum of the two numbers is 63, find the numbers.

Answer 1

Answer:

12 and 51

Step-by-step explanation:

Since

b=3 times the smaller number + 15

Then

B=3a+15

And

A+B=63

Thus

A+B=63

Substitute 3a+15 into B

A+(3A+15)=63

4A+15=63

4A=63-15

4A=48

Divide by 4

A=12

So

B=3(12)+15

B=51

Answer 2

Answer:

The two numbers are 51 and 12
