Answer:
35.34 and 16.66
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
let the numbers be x and y
the smaller number = x
the larger number = y
x+y=52--------1
<em>The larger number is 2 less than twice the smaller number</em>
y=2x-2-------2
put y= 2x-2 in eqn 1
x+2x-2=52
3x-2=52
3x=52-2
3x=50
x= 50/3
x= 16.66
put x=16.66 in eqn 1 to find y
x+y=52
16.66+y= 52
y=52-16.66
y= 35.34
Hence the numbers are
35.34 and 16.66
Check
35.34+16.66= 52
