Result: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given phrase: 
Required expression: ['+' used to express sum, 'x' used in place of 'of']
Since 18+16 = 34
Then,
![\dfrac14\times(18+16)=\dfrac14\times34 \\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times17\ \ \text{[Divide numerator and denominator by 2]}\\\\=\dfrac{17}{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac14%5Ctimes%2818%2B16%29%3D%5Cdfrac14%5Ctimes34%20%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Ctimes17%5C%20%5C%20%5Ctext%7B%5BDivide%20numerator%20and%20denominator%20by%202%5D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%5Cdfrac%7B17%7D%7B2%7D)
Hence, 
Answer:
x = 18 y = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
let the first number be x
let the second number be y
x = y + 8..... equation 1
2x + y = 46.... equation 2
x is the larger number
y is the smaller number.
Rearrange the equation and add equation 1 to equation 2.
x - y = 8
+ 2x + y = 46
-------------------
3x + 0 = 54
3x = 54
divide both sides by 3
x = 54/3
x = 18
Substitute x = 18 into equation 1
x = y + 8
18 = y + 8
collect like terms
y = 18-8
y = 10
