    Your numbers are 11 and 32

    We know that:
    a + b = 44
    and
    a = 3b

    If we substitute “3b” in for a in the first equation, we get a numerical value for b

    3b + b = 44
    4b = 44
    b = 11

    Then we substitute the numerical value of b to solve for a:
    a = 3b
    a = 3(11) = 33
