Question

sum of two numbers is 56 . one number is 8 more than the other number. what are the numbers?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of two numbers is 56.

if one number is 8 more than the other number.

let the number is x.

so,x+8+x = 56

2x+8=56

2x=56-8

2x=48

x=48/2

x=24.

therefore, one number is 24.

the other number is x+8=24+8

=32
