Let b>a

b+a=52 

b=52-a, we are also told that the larger number, b, is 3 times the smaller a:

b=3a, since b=b we can say:

3a=52-a 

4a=52

a=13, and since b=3a

b=39

So the numbers are 13 and 39

<span> Let x be the smaller number.
Then 3x is the larger number.
We also know that the smaller added to the larger is 52, or:
x + 3x = 52
4x =52
x = 13
Therefore the smaller is 13, the larger is 3(13)=39. </span>

Volume of the prism:
V = B · h, where B stays for the area of the base and h stays for the height of the prism. And we know that d1 = 8, d2 = 6
B = ( d1 · d2 ) / 2 = ( 8 · 6 ) / 2 = 48 / 2 = 24
V = 24 · 16  = 384
Answer:
The volume of the prism is 384 cubic units.
