Question

PLEASE PLEASE SOLVE IT








If the sum of two numbers is 187 and their difference is 23 find the numbers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the numbers be 'x' and 'y' .

Now, A/Q

x + y = 187

x - y = 23

by Elimination method,

2x = 210

x = 105

Now, x + y = 187

105 + y = 187

y = 82

Answer 2

Answer:

x+y=187 eq. 1

x-y=23 eq. 2

adding 1 and 2

we have,

2x =210

x=105

and

y=82
