Question

4. Sum of two numbers is 95. If one exceeds the other by 15, find the numbers,
​

Answer 1

Answer:

40 and 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x

second number be (x+15) // one exceed other by 15 //

sum of the number is  given by x+(x+15) = 95

x+x+15=95

2x+15 = 95

2x =95-15

2x = 80

x=80/2

x =40

first number x=40, second number x+15 = 40+15= 55

The numbers are 40 and 55.

Answer 2

Answer:

40,55

Step-by-step explanation:

let 1st number be x

let the 2nd number be x + 15

therefore

x + x + 15 = 95

2x = 95 - 15

2x = 80

x = 40

1st number = 40

2nd number = 55
