Answer:
Larger number(x)=20
Step-by-step explanation:
They're saying that the larger number 3 times is EQUAL(the same) to 4 times the smaller number.
The smallest number=35-x.
The larger number= x.
3 times the larger number=3x
4 times the smaller number=4(35-x)
Now, input it into an equation and solve:
3x=4(35-x) Distribute by multiplying 4 with 35 and x.
3x+4x=140-4x+4x Get 140 by itself by adding 4x.
7x/7=140/7 Divide.
x=20
Since x= the larger number, x=20.
