So... we have two numbers
say "a" and "b"
one is larger than the other, let us say, "b" is larger than "a"
by how much?
well, "<span>eight more than three times"
three times the smaller is 3 * a, or 3a
eight more than that is 3a + 8
so b = 3a+ 8
the sum of both of them is 52
so, we know that
a + b = 52
run a substitution on "b" on the 2nd equation, and solve for "a"
once you find "a", plug it back in the 2nd equation, to get "b"
