Answer : 11 and 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be X and Y then,
By question
X= Y - 2 .....................(i)
2Y = 3X - 7 ...............(ii)
putting the value of X from (i) on equation (ii) we get,
2Y = 3(Y - 2) - 7
2Y = 3Y - 6 - 7
2Y - 3y = - 13
-Y = - 13
Y = 13
now putting value of Y in equation (i)
X = 13 - 2= 11
hence those numbers are 11 and 13 respectively
