    Hello,

    n + (2n - 30) = 90

    n + 2n - 30 = 90

    3n - 30 = 90

    3n = 30 + 90 = 120

    n = 120 / 3 = 40°

    Let x = other angle of two complementary angles

    One of two complementary angles is 30 less than twice other: 2x - 30

    Sum of complimentary angles add to be 90 degrees

    x + 2x - 30 = 90

    3x = 120

    x = 40

    Answer

    40 degrees
