<span>Here let the quadratic equation be ax^2 + bx + c
We know that a=5 from the question.
Since the roots are 6 and 2, the quadratic equation would take the form of a product like (a1x-b1)(a2x-b2).
However, let's assume that a2=1 and b2=6,
Since a=5, a1=5, then 5x-b1=5(x-2). Solving this shows that b1=10
So, the equation is (5x-10)(x-6)</span>
So. let's say the numbers are "a" and "b"
whatever they're, we know a + b = 56
let's say the larger one is "b", so 3 times the smaller is 3*a or 3a
now, 12 less than that, is 3a - 12
and the larger is that, so b = 3a - 12
so

solve for "a", to see what the smaller one is
what's b? well, b = 56 - a
