Answer:
Let one number be x
Other number = x + 15
As per the condition of the question, we get
x + (x + 15) = 95
⇒ x + x + 15 = 95
⇒ 2x + 15 = 95
⇒ 2x = 95 – 15 [transposing 15 from (+) to (-)]
⇒ 2x = 80
⇒ x = 80/2 [transposing 2 from (×) to (÷)]
⇒ x = 40
Other number = 95 – 40 = 55
Thus, the required numbers are 40 and 55.
Hope it's help you....❤️
