Answer by farah(18) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let y be the larger number n x be smaller number.. ok, y-x=13,y=2(x-3)..so,u will get 2x-6-x=13,hence x=19..if x is 19,then y=19+13,y=32..please check wether the different of both number is 13 or not..let me do it for u,y is 32 and x is19,so 32-19=13,thats mean the numbers are 32 and 19.sorry if i'm doing wrong.
