Answer 1

Answer:

Hi friends

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be 1 no. as x

let be the other no as x+5

x+x+5=35

2x=35-5

x=30/2

x=15

other no 20

hope this helps you

Answer 2

Let the two numbers be x and y.

As per question sum of two numbers is x+y=35------eq(1)

And their difference is x−y=5-----eq(2)

On Adding equation 1 and 2 we get

x+y=35

x-y=5

2x=40

Therefore x=20

As per equation (1) x+y=35

Putting the value of x we get, 20+y=35

Therefore y=15
