Answer:

4.5 and 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 numbers be x and y with x > y , then

x + y = 6 → (1)

x - y = 3 → (2)

Add the 2 equations term by term to eliminate y, that is

2x + 0 = 9

2x = 9 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 4.5

Substitute x = 4.5 into (1) for value of y

4.5 + y = 6 ( subtract 4.5 from both sides )

y = 1.5

The 2 numbers are 4.5 and 1.5
