Let x is one positive number
<span>One positive number is 12 times another positive number 12x
</span>12x - x = 143
11x = 143
x = 143/11
x = 13

12x = 12(13) = 156

answer: 2 numbers are 13 and 156

double check:

<span>difference between the two numbers is 143
</span>156 - 13 = 143

Let x be the unknown number and let's set up an equation.
12x - x = 143
Now solve for x:
11x = 143
x = 13
The positive number is 13.

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

n=\frac{8}{3}  or  n = 2\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides of the equation by \frac{10}{3}

(\frac{10}{3}) (\frac{3}{10})*n= (\frac{10}{3})(\frac{4}{5})

Simplify both sides of the equation.

n=\frac{8}{3} or n = 2\frac{2}{3}

<em>hope this helps :)</em>
