Answer 1

Answer:

55 and 40

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x + 15) = 95

2x = 80

x = 40

Answer 2

Answer:

40 and 45

Step-By-Step Explanation:

Let one of the numbers be= x.

Then, the other number becomes x + 15

According to the question,

x + x + 15 = 95

⇒ 2x + 15 = 95

⇒ 2x = 95 – 15

⇒ 2x = 80

⇒ x = 80/2

⇒ x = 40

First number = x = 40

And, other number = x + 15 = 40 + 15 = 55
