Given - Sum of two numbers = 110
One number exceeds the other by 18
Find - The two numbers.
Solution - Let us say that one number is x. So, the second number as per given information is x + 18. Question also mentions the sum of these two numbers, thus, expressing it in equation form, we get -
x + x + 18 = 110
Solving the mathematical expression -
2x + 18 = 110
2x = 92
x = 46
Therefore, the first number is 46
Second number = 46 + 18
Second number = 64
Hence, first number is 46 and second number is 64.
