The sum of two numbers is 3.1. twice the large number is 7 more than 3 times the smaller number. what are the numbers?

Let the two numbers be x and y where x is greater than y.

So;

x + y = 3.1 ... (i)

2x - 3y = 7 ... (ii)

This forms a set of simultaneous equations (i) and (ii)

Solving the simultaneous equations by elimination;

We multiply (i) by 2 and (ii)  by 1 to get:

2x + 2y = 6.2 ... (i)

2x - 3y = 7 ... (ii)

Subtracting (i) - (ii) we get;

5y = -0.8

y = -0.8/5 = -0.16

x = 3.1 - -0.16 = 3.26

The numbers are 3.26 and -0.16.

36/60

36/2=18

60/2=30

18/30

18/3=6

30/3=10

6/10

6/2=3

10/2=5

your final answer would be 3/5 of an

hope this !
