Answer:

8 is the smaller number.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the statement question.

We have to find the smaller number.

Let the smaller number is x.

From the statement the associated equation is:

x+(2x+3) = 27

We have to find the value of x.

x+(2x+3) = 27

x+2x+3 =27

3x+3 = 27

3x = 27 -3

3x = 24

x = 8

8 is the smaller number.
