  1. Answer:

    first number be 33

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the first number be x

    and second number be y

    So,

    two numbers=3x:5x

    if 9 is subtracted from both the numbers

    3x-9/5x-9=12/23

    23(3x-9)=12(5x-9)

    69x-207=60x-108

    69x-60x=-108+207

    9x=99

    x=11

    Now put the value of x in 3x:5x

    3x=3×11=33

    5x=5×11=55

    hope it will be helpful to you
