​

Answer 1

answer 337700

Explanation:346270-9020

Answer 2

Answer:

168625

Explanation:

Let the larger number be x and smaller number be y,

Given,

one number is lesser than the other by 9020

y = x - 9020

Also given,

sum of these numbers is 346270

x + y = 346270

x +(x - 9020) = 346270(substituting the value of y )

x + x - 9020 = 346270

2x = 346270 + 9020

2x = 355290

x = 177645

y = x - 9020

y = 177645 - 9020 ( substituting the value of x)

y = 168625

Therefore,

smaller number = y = 168625
