Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

the numbers are 40 and 55

Explanation

let first number be x so the other number will be x+15

According to question

x + x+ 15 = 95

2x + 15 = 95

2x = 95 - 15

2x = 80

x = 40

Answer 2

Let one number be x.

So, the other number = (x+15)

Sum = 95

According to condition,

x+(x+15) = 95

or, 2x+15 = 95

or, 2x = 95-15

or, 2x = 80

or, x = ⁸⁰/₂

or, x = 40

One number = x = 40

Other number = (x+15) = (40+15) = 55.

Hence, the two numbers are 40 and 55.

Hope this helps you to get to your answer.
