Answer 2

Answer:

First number is 33

Second number is 33+6=39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one number be x

Let second number be x+6

(because one will be x and other is six more than first number)

Let,

x+x+6=72

2x+6=72

2x=72-6

2x=66

x=66/2

x=33

Since,first number is 33 (Because x=33)

Second number is 33+6=39 (Because x=33 then x+6=33+6)

Lets check

sum of two numbers

First number is 33

Second number is 33+6

Lets,   (33+33+6)

Answer is:72

I hope this answer is correct
