We call two numbers a and b, notice a>b
<span>The sum of two numbers is 110: a+b=110
</span><span>The larger number is 2 less than 7 times the smaller: a=7b-2
And by replacing a=7b-2 we have an equation: 7b-2+b=110
or 8b=110+2, and 8b=112, that means b=112:8= 14
We have two numbers: 14 and 96</span>

Check the picture below.
now, recall, both blades are congruent, thus a = b, so c² = a² + b² -> c² = b² + b².
Start by representing the lengths of the three sides of your triangle:
first side: x-4 (inches)
second side: x (inches)
third side: (x-4) + 3 (inches)
Add these three quantities up to obtain a formula for the perimeter, and set your sum equal to the given perimeter (15 inches):
x-4 + x + x-4 -3 = 15
3x-11=15
3x=26
x=26/3
Thus, the length of the 2nd side is 26/3; that of the first side is 26/3-4, or 14/3; and that of the third side is 14/3+3, or 23/3 (all measurements in inches).
