Question 222439
I'll give you the equations and let you try solving them. If you still need help, just repost:


"The difference between two numbers is twelve" means that {{{x-y=12}}}. This implies that {{{x>y}}} (ie 'x' is the bigger number).


Also, "Three times the smaller number is four less than twice the larger number" tells us that {{{3y=2x-4}}}



Now just use the two equations to find x and y.
