Question

2. The sum of two numbers is 25 and their difference is 3 Find the numbers​

Answer 1

Answer:

11 and 14

Step-by-step explanation:

let us say one number is x

the other number can be x + 3

x+x+3=25

x+x=25-3

x+x=22

2x=22

so x=22/2

x=11

one number is 11. The other number is 11+3=14

Answer 2

Answer:

14 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 25

x - y = 3

x = 3 + y

3 + y + y = 25

3 + 2y = 25

2y = 25 - 3

2y = 22

y = 22 ÷ 2

y = 11

x + 11 = 25

x = 25 - 11

x = 14
