    4 and 0

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let one number be x

    Let second number be y

    One number = 4-3y

    (3+2x) - 2y=11

    Substitutue one number x in the equation

    (3+2 (4-3y)) - 2y=11

    Open inner bracket

    (3+8-6y) - 2y=11

    Open the final bracket

    3+8-6y-2y=11

    11-8y=11

    -8y=11-11

    -8y=0

    y=0 (this is because zero cant be divided)

    One number = 4-3y

    Substitute y

    4-3 (0)

    4-0=4

    x=4
