Let,
the bigger number be "x"
the smaller number be "y"
Now, according to the question,
x + y = 24...........equation (1).............because the sum of numbers is 24
x - y = 15 .............equation (2)..................because their difference is 15
Taking equation (2),
x - y = 15
x = 15 + y ....................equation (3)
Now, Taking equation (1)
x + y = 24
(Substituting the value of "x" form equation (3) we get)
15 + y + y = 24
(Subtracting 15 on both sides, we get)
y + y = 24 - 15
2y = 9
y = 9 / 2
y = 4.5
Now,
Taking equation (3)
x = 15 + y
(Substituting the value of y , we get)
x = 15 + 4.5
x = 19.5
So, the two numbers are 19.5 and 4.5

Answer: I think your answer is 2 ( please let me know if this is wrong ) !
Step-by-step explanation:
Percent change = ((new value) - (old value))/(old value) × 100%
= (180 -135)/135 × 100%
= 33 1/3%
180 is about 33% greater than 135.
