Answer:

Hey There !

Let's solve....

Let the larger number be x

Let the smaller number be y

So

Now x+y=40

So just add 40+8=48

We know that

[tex]2x = 48 \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \frac{48}{2} \\ \\ simplify \\ \\ \frac{ \cancel{48} \: ^{24} }{ \cancel{2} } [/tex]

So larger number is 24

To find the smaller number.... Just subtract The total number by larger number that is

[tex]40 - 24 = 16 \\ \\ [/tex]

So 16 is the smaller number...

Larger number is 24 and smaller is 16

I hope it is helpful to you...
