Answer:

One of the number is 4 while the other is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers is eleven

Let the numbers be x and y

X+ y = 11

One number is thirty-eight less than six times the other

X= 6y-38

X+ y = 11

6y-38 +y= 11

6y+y= 11+38

7y=49

Y= 49/7

Y= 7

X+ y = 11

X+7= 11

X= 11-7

X= 4
