4) If the sum of two numbers is 64, and the larger number is 3 less than 3 times the
smaller number. Find the smaller number.

Answer :

Answer:

x = 67/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = smaller number and y = bigger number

Then x +y = 64 and y = 3x-3

Plugging y into x+y = 64

x + 3x -3 = 64

4x = 67

x = 67/4
