Answer:

           These numbers are 3 and 9

Step-by-step explanation:

x - smaller number

3x - three times the smaller number = the larger number

2×3x - twice the targer number

2×3x+3x  - twice the larger is added to three times the smaller

2×3x + 3x = 27

6x + 3x = 27

  9x = 27

 ÷9     ÷9

   x = 3

3x = 3×3 = 9
