The numbers are 3 and 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Given details are sum of numbers = 21, let the numbers be x and y. Form equations out of the given details.
⇒ x + y = 21 ---- (1)
⇒ y = 6x --------- (2)
Step 2: Substitute (2) in (1)
⇒ x + 6x = 21
⇒7x = 21
⇒x = 3
- Step 3: Find the value of y using x
⇒ y = 6 × 3
⇒ y = 18
