Question

sum of two number is 95 if 1 exceeds thw other number by 15, find the number
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the number be x and y

x + y = 95 ------(1)

x= y+ 15--------(2)

put eqn(2) in eqn (1)

y + 15 + y = 95

2y = 95 - 15

y = 80/2

y= 40

x = y +15

x = 40 + 15

x = 55

so the numbers are 55 and 40

Answer 2

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

let the 1st number be x

2nd number be x + 15

1st no. + 2nd no. = 95

x + x + 15 = 95

2x + 15 = 95

2x = 95 - 15

2x = 80

x = 80÷2

x = 40

1st No. x = 40

2nd No. x + 15 = 40 + 15 = 55

Therefore the two numbers are 40 and 55
