1. Let x = the number, the other number would be x-19
x + x-19 = 65
2x-19=65
2x=84
x=84/2
x=42
The other number is 42-19=23. So the two numbers are 42 and 23.
2. Similar to the last one...

x+x-7 = 39
2x-7=39
2x=46
x=46/2
x=23
The other number is 16.

I don't understand the 3rd question, sorry.

Hope that helps for the first two!
