\n" ); document.write( "The average of two numbers is 11.the difference between them is 4,find the number
\n" ); document.write( "
Let larger be L
\n" );
document.write( "Then smaller = L - 4
\n" );
document.write( "With average being 11, we get: 
\n" );
document.write( "2L - 4 = 22 ------ Cross-multiplying
\n" );
document.write( "2L = 26
\n" );
document.write( "L, or larger = \"highlight_green%28matrix%281%2C3%2C+26%2F2%2C+%22=%22%2C+13%29%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "You should be able to find the smaller, if both are needed! \n" );
document.write( "
\n" );
