Question

Sum of two number is 95.the second number is 15greater than first number.find the numbers

Answer 1

Let the number be x.
So, the other number is (x + 15).
(x + 15) + x = 95
2x + 15 = 95
2x = 95 - 15
2x = 80
x = 40
 So, the numbers are 40 and 55.

Answer 2

Let the first number be x
And the second number, according to question,=x+15

Now, x+(x+15)=95
→ 2x+15=95
→ 2x=80
→ x=40

Thus the first number is 40
And the second number is 40+15= 55

The answers are:40 & 55
