Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

40 and 45

Step-by-step explanation:

let the smaller no be x

x+x+15=95

2x+15=95

2x=95-15=80

2x=80

x=40

verify

40+45=95

Answer 2

Answer:

one number is 40 and another number is 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number

so, x+15 = the other number

x + x+15 = 95

2x = 95 - 15 = 80

x = 80/2 = 40

so, x +15 = 40 +15

= 55
