Question

If the sum of two numbers is 35 and one number exceeds the other by 15 , What are the numbers?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the unknown number be x.

Then another number = x + 15

A/q x + 15 + x = 35

$\implies$ 2x = 35 - 15

$\implies$ 2x = 20

$\implies$ x = 10

$\therefore$ The numbers are;

$\hookrightarrow$ 10

$\hookrightarrow$ 10 + 15 = 25

ɪғ ᴛʜᴇ sᴜᴍ ᴏғ ᴛᴡᴏ ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀs ɪs 35 ᴀɴᴅ ᴏɴᴇ ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀ ᴇxᴄᴇᴇᴅs ᴛʜᴇ ᴏᴛʜᴇʀ ʙʏ 15 , ᴡʜᴀᴛ ᴀʀᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀs?

sᴜᴍ = 35

ʟᴇᴛ's ᴀssᴜᴍᴇ ᴛʜᴇ 1sᴛ ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀ = x

ʟᴇᴛ's ᴀssᴜᴍᴇ ᴛʜᴇ 2ɴᴅ ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀ = x +15

$x + (x + 15) = 35 \\ 2x + 15 = 35 \\ 2x = 35 - 15 \\ 2x = 20 \\ x = 10$

1sᴛ ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀ = x =10

2ɴᴅ ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀ = x +15 =10+15=25

$\mathfrak{ \huge{ \underline{hence : }}}$

ᴛʜᴇ ᴛᴡᴏ ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ 10 ᴀɴᴅ 25.
