The difference between two numbers is 26 and one number is three times the other. Find the numbers.

  • 1

Let the numbers be x and y with x > y. The equations are x – y = 26 and x = 3y. Substituting gives 3y – y = 26, so 2y = 26, y = 13 and x = 39.

  1. Let the larger number be x and the smaller number be y. According to the problem statement, the system of linear equations is x – y = 26 and x = 3y. Using the substitution method, replace x with 3y in the first equation: 3y – y = 26, which simplifies to 2y = 26, yielding y = 13. Consequently, x = 3(13) = 39. The required numbers are 39 and 13.
