Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 numbers be n and [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] n, then summing

n + [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] n = 45

Multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction

3n + 2n = 135, that is

5n = 135 ( divide both sides by 5 )

n = 27

and [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] × 27 = 2 × 9 = 18

Thus the smaller of the 2 numbers is 18
