Question

Sim of two numbers is 65 . The greater number is 15 more than the smaller one. Form an equation to find the smaller number (take the smaller number as p).

Answer 1

To Find:-

• Find the smaller number.

Given:-

• Sum of two numbers is 65. The greater number is 15 more than the smaller one.

Solution:-

Let the smaller number be " p "

Greater number be " p + 15 "

$\tt\implies \: p + 15 + p = 65$

$\tt\implies \: 2p + 15 = 65$

$\tt\implies \: 2p = 65 - 15$

$\tt\implies \: 2p = 50$

$\tt\implies \: p = 25$

Hence,

• $\tt\: Smaller \: \: number = 25$
• $\tt\: Greater \: \: number = 25 + 15 = 40$
