Question

Some of two number is 95. If one exceed other by 3.find the number

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the two numbers be x and y, where y > x

Also given that, y - x = 3

=> y = 3 + x

=> x + y = 95

=> x + ( 3 + x ) = 95

=> 2x + 3 = 95

=> 2x = 95 - 3

=> 2x = 92

=> x = 46

=> y = x + 3 = 46 + 3 = 49

Hence the numbers are 46 and 49.

Answer 2

$\mathbb{ SOLUTION }$ :

Given:
Sum of two numbers is 95.
one number exceeds other by 3.

Let,
one number be x
another number = (x + 3)

So,

=> x + x + 3 = 95

=> 2x = 95 - 3

=> 2x = 92

=> x = 92 ÷ 2

=> x = 46

Hence,
one number (x) = 46
and another number (x + 3) = 46 + 3 = 49
