Question

Please help me with this problem:
Two integers have a sum of 53 and a difference of 17. Find the larger integer.
I'm thinking it should be x + x = 53
x - x = 17
So maybe subtract 53 and 17 to get 36. But i don't think thats right either.
Thanks for taking time to help me, it's greatly appreciated.
