Question

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

Answer 1

Let the two number be,
x and y

Sum of the two numbers = 95
x + y = 95 ----(1)

One exceeds the other by 15
x = y + 15

putting x in (1)

y + 15 + y = 95
2y + 15 = 95
y = 40

putting y in (1)

x + 40 = 95
x = 55

Answer 2

let the two numbers be x and y
so,x+y=95----(I)
if one exceeds the other by 15
then, x+15=y
=> x - y= -15---(ii)
b|p
x+y=95
x-y=15
-----------
2x=110
=> x=55
x+y=95
=>55+y=95
=>y=95-55=40
therefore,the to nos is 55 and 40.
