The difference between two positive number is 72 and one of them divided by the other is 4. Find those numbers.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "x - y = 72
\n" ); document.write( "x/y = 4
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4y
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute:
\n" ); document.write( "4y-y = 72
\n" ); document.write( "3y = 72
\n" ); document.write( "y = 24
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Then x = 96
