SOLUTION
CORRECT QUESTION
Sum of two numbers is 14. If one number exceeds other by 4 . The numbers are
a) 9, 5
b) 3, 6
c) 2, 1
d) 10, 8
EVALUATION
Let the required numbers are a and b ( b > a )
Since one number exceeds other by 4
b = a + 4 - - - - - - - (1)
Again Sum of two numbers is 14
a + b = 14 - - - - - - - - (2)
From Equation 1 and Equation 2 we get
a + a + 4 = 14
⇒ 2a + 4 = 14
⇒ 2a = 10
⇒ a = 5
We get from Equation 1
b = 5 + 4 = 9
So the required numbers are 5 and 9
FINAL ANSWER
Hence the correct option is a) 9, 5
