Hey there!!
With the question, we know that there are two numbers.
The question states that the larger number is 3 more than the smaller number. And the sum of the two numbers is 73.
Taking into equations.
... Smaller number + Larger number = 73
... Smaller number + Smaller number + 3 = 73
... 2 ( smaller number ) = 73 - 3
... 2 ( smaller number ) = 70
... smaller number = 70 / 2
... smaller number = 35
Hence, the smaller number is 35 and the larger number is smaller number + 3 , which is 38.
Hence, the numbers are 35 and 38
Hope my answer helps!!
