1. Step-by-step explanation:

   let one number is = 3x

   and second number is = x

   there difference is

   3x – x = 26

   2x = 26

   x = 26 / 2

   x = 13

   first number is = 3 * 13 = 39

   secind number is = 13

2. Step-by-step explanation:

   let x be one number

   and y be the other

   x-y=26–1

   x=3y

   substitute x value in eqn 1

   3y-y=26

   2y=26

   y=13

   x=3y

   x=3(13)

   x=39
