Answer 2

Answer: The two numbers are 50 and 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of two numbers is 85 and one number is 15 less than the number.

Let the two numbers be x and (x-15)

A.T.Q,

x + (x-15) = 85

or, x + x - 15 = 85

or, 2x - 15 = 85

or, 2x = 85 + 15

or, 2x = 100

or, x = 50

And, x - 15 = (50 - 15) = 35
