<PRE><B>Question 370952</B>
&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Tahoma&quot;&gt;Let x be the larger number.  Then the smaller number is (x-16). &lt;br&gt;

Then we have:&lt;br&gt;

{{{4*(x-16)+13=3x}}} given&lt;br&gt;

{{{4x-64+13=3x}}}&lt;br&gt;

{{{4x-3x=64-13}}}&lt;br&gt;

{{{x=51}}}&lt;br&gt;

If the larger number is 51, the smaller number is 35.&lt;br&gt;

I hope this helps!&lt;br&gt;</PRE>
