Question

The sum of two numbers is twice their difference. The larger number is 5 more than twice the smaller. Find the numbers.

Answer 1

Answer:

18 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers is twice their difference: 18 + 6 = 24, 18 - 6 = 12. 24 is twice of 12.

The larger number is 5 more than twice the smaller. Twice of 6 is 12. 5 more than 12 is 18.
