Question

Sum of two numbers is 95. If one exceeds the other by 15, find the numbers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

40 and 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required number be x.

Then,one number= x

another number= x+15

Hence,x+x+15=95

=> 2x+15=95

=> 2x=95-15

=> 2x=80

=> x=40

So,one number is 40 and the other number=40+15

=55

Answer 2

Answer:-

Given:

Sum of two numbers = 95

And,

One number exceeds the other by 15.

Let one of the numbers be x.

→ Other number = x - 15

According to the question,

→ x + x - 15 = 95

→ 2x = 95 + 15

→ 2x = 110

→ x = 110/2

→ x = 55

Therefore,

• 1st number = x = 55

• 2nd number = x - 15 = 55 - 15 = 40.
