Problema Solution
one number is 3 more than another number. if you add 11 to 2 times the first number, the result is 3 times the second number.
Answer provided by our tutors
Let x be first number and y be second number
x=y+3 ----(i)
11+2x=3y ----(ii)
solving (i) and (ii) simultaneously,
11+2y+6=3y
y=17
and
x=20
so 20 and 17 are numbers
