    Answer: biggest no.=27. Smallest number=9

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let's take the smallest number as x and the biggest number as 3x since it is 3 times bigger than x.

    The sum of these two numbers is 36

    3x+x=36

    4x=36

    X (smallest number) = 36/4: 9

    While, the biggest number is 3x: 3*9=27
