Question

Sum of 2 number is 800 and difference between them is 200 then what is the smallest number

Answer 1

Answer:

200

steps

let us take one number as x and another as x-200

so there are two number right so let us take 800/2=400

400+400=800

if x=400 then other number is x-200

which implies 400-200=200

so let us take it 200 and the other number as 600

Answer 2

Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

let ,the smallest number is x

the other number is x+200

=>x=600/2

=>x=300

so, the answer is 300.
