One number is greater than the other number by 3. The sum of two numbers is 23. The two numbers are​

Answer 1

Answer:

10,13

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 1st number

y = 2nd number = x+3

x+y = 23

x+x+3 = 23 (putting value of y)

2x = 23 - 3

2x = 20

x = 20/2

x = 10

y = x+ 3

so, y = 10+3

y =13

Answer 2

10 and 13

Let the smaller number be x

x+x+3=23

2x+3=23

2x=23-3=20

x=10

To find bigger number just add 3
