A) 15 B) 3
C) 9 D) 6
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 15

Explanation:

Let the required two numbers be a, b

From the given data,

2a + 3b = 36 .....(1)

3a + 2b = 39 .....(2)

Now, by solving 1 and 2 eqnts, we get

5a = 45

a = 9 ....(3)

Put (3) in (1), we get

2(9) + 3b = 36

=> 18 + 3b = 36

3b = 36 - 18

=> b = 18/3 = 6

 

Required, difference between the numbers = a + b = 9 + 6 = 15.
