Answer:
Let the first number be x.
One exceeds the other by 15 find the number. :]
So, Second number will be (x + 15)
The sum of two numbers = 95 .....[Given]
According to question now,
➳ x + (x + 15) = 95
➳ x + x + 15 = 95
➳ 2x + 15 = 95
➳ 2x = 95 - 15
➳ 2x = 80
➳ x = 80/2
➳ x = 40
Therefore,
- First number = x = 40
- Second number = x + 15 = 40 + 15 = 55
