उत्तर
Let the first number = x
and the second number = y
According to the condition
x + y= 18 …(i)
and x = 27 ….(ii)
Substitute the eq. (ii) in eq. (i), we get
2y + y= 18
x= 2y = 18
⇒ 3y= 18
⇒ y = `18/3 = 6`
Now, substitute the value of y in eq. (ii), we get
x = 2 x 6= 12
∴ The two numbers are 12, 6
