Question:-
➡ Sum of two numbers is 35 and their difference is 13. Find the numbers.
Answer:-
➡ The numbers are 24 and 11 respectively.
Solution:-
Let us assume that the numbers are x and y.
So, as per the conditions,
➡ x + y = 35 .....(i)
and,
➡ x - y = 13 ......(ii)
Adding both the equations, we get,
➡ x + y + x - y = 35 + 13
➡ 2x = 48
Dividing both sides by 2, we get,
➡ x = 48/2
➡ x = 24
Now, substituting x in the equation (i), we get,
➡ 24 + y = 35
Subtracting 24 from both sides, we get,
➡ y = 35 - 24
➡ y = 11
Hence, the numbers are 24 and 11 respectively.
Verification:-
Let us verify our result.
x = 24 and y = 11
So,
x + y
= 24 + 11
= 35
Also,
x - y
= 24 - 11
= 13.
Hence, the numbers are 24 and 11.
