Grant is thinking of two numbers. He says that one of the numbers is six times the other number decreased by 2 and the sum of the numbers is 25. What are the numbers?

unknown values: x,y

equation: x = 6*y - 2

equation: x + y = 25

answer: {148/7; 27/7} | {21.143; 3.857}

The sum of two numbers is 240. The larger number is 6 less than twice the smaller number. Find the numbers.

unknown values: a,b

equation: a+b=240

equation: a=2*b-6

answer: {158; 82}

The sum of two numbers is 12. When one number is subtracted from three times the other, the result is 5. Find the numbers.

unknown values: x,y

equation: x + y = 12

equation: 3*y - x = 5

answer: {31/4; 17/4} | {7.75; 4.25}

Separate the number 57 into two parts so that the first number is three less than twice the second number.

unknown values: x,y

equation: x+y=57

equation: x = 2*y - 3

answer: 37; 20

The sum of two numbers is 62. Two times the lesser number is 4 more than the greater number. What are the numbers?

unknown values: x, y

equation: x + y = 62

equation: 2*y = 4 + x

answer: {40; 22}
