Answer:

24 and 21 are the two numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

let n represent the unknown number

let n-3 represent the second unknown number

n+n-3 = 45

2n-3=45

2n=45+3

2n=48

n=48/2

n=24

n-3=21

CHECK: 24+21=45

.˙. the first number is 24 and the second number with a difference of 3 is 21
