Question

Sum of two numbers is 60 if one exceeds others by 10 find the number
​

Answer 1

Answer:

25 and 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y

Therefore,

According to the question,

x + y = 60___________________________eq.1

x = y + 10

x - y = 10____________________________eq.2

Therefore,

Adding equations 1 and 2, we get,

  x + y = 60

  x -  y = 10

________________

2x         = 70

x = 35

Substituting the value of x in eq.1, we get,

35 + y = 60

y = 60 - 35

y = 25

Therefore,

Numbers are 25 and 35
