I'm using PEDMAS.
Multiplication first.
2 • 4 = 8
Subtraction.
20 - 4 = 16
16 + 8 = 24
Please let me know if you spot any errors (especially the fraction operation)
X = larger number, y = smaller number
x = 5y
x - y = 36
5y - y = 36
4y = 36
y = 36/4
y = 9
x = 5y
x = 5(9)
x = 45
ur numbers are 45 and 9 <==
