-2 is smaller.
The sum of two numbers is 3 times their difference If the larger number is 6 more than the smaller number what is the larger number?
ya i will solve this question by taking assumptions if we observe the question easily identified the larger number is greater than smaller number by 6 and one thing is the sum of two numbers is 3 times their difference from this information we clearly says sum is divided by 3 so if we take smaller number 1 larger number 7(add 6) (1+6)=3(5) and now smaller number 2 larger number 8 (2+8)=3(6) : : : take smaller number 6 larger number 12 this is the correct answer 6+12=3(6)
What are the two numbers that add up to 2 but when the smaller number is subtracted from the larger number the answer is 1?

How do you make the number 3 smaller?

What do you get when you subtract a positive from a positive?
Depends. If you are subtracting a bigger number from a smaller number, such as 3 - 5, you will get a negative result, -2. If you are subtracting a smaller number from a bigger number, such as 12 - 3 you will get a positive result, 9.
What is 3 over 2 as a mixed number?
2 over 3 cannot be a mixed number because the numerator is smaller than the denominator
The smaller of the two consecutive even integers is 3 more than 3/4 of the larger. Find the numbers?
let x be the smaller number. let x + 2 be the larger number. 4 times the smaller number is 2 more than 3 times the larger number. in equation form, this becomes: 4x = 3 * (x+2) + 2 simplify this to get: 4x = 3x + 6 + 2 which becomes: 4x = 3x + 8 subtract 3x from both sides of this equation to get: x = 8
What 2 numbers whose GCF is 3 and twice the smaller number is bigger?
3 and any multiple of 3 have a GCF of 3. Any two multiples of 3 that differ by 3 have a GCF of 3. I'm not sure how to interpret "twice the smaller number is bigger."
How is 6 a composite number?
6 is a composite number because it is the product of two smaller integers, 2 and 3.
The sum of two consecutive odd numbers is 100 What is the smaller number?
The two numbers can be thought of as: Smaller Odd Number = x + 1 (Add one to ensure it is an odd number) Larger Consecutive Odd Number = Smaller Number + 2 = x + 1 + 2 = x + 3 We know that Smaller Odd Number + Larger Consecutive Odd Number = 100 (X + 1) + (x + 3) = 100 2x + 4 = 100 2x = 96 x = 48 Smaller Odd Number = 48 + 1 = 49 The smaller odd number is 49. The next consecutive odd number of course is 51.
Is subtraction a short cut for addition?
No, subtraction is not a short cut for additon. In addition, you add numbers to another number to make it bigger. For example, adding 2 to 3 gives you 5. You can see that 5 is bigger than 2 and 3. However, for subtraction, you take away numbers to make a number smaller. If you take away 2 from 5, you get 3. As you can see, 3 is smaller than 5, which proves that subtraction makes a number smaller.
