You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let larger number be N, which makes the smaller number: N - 6
\n" ); document.write( "Then N(N – 6) = N^2 + (N – 6)^2 – 223
\n" ); document.write( "Solve this to get: N, or larger number = 17
\n" ); document.write( "Smaller number: 17 – 6, or 11
\n" ); document.write( "That's all!! \n" ); document.write( "
