Answer:
First number = 40
Second number = 55
Step-by-step explanation:
Given -
Sum of two numbers = 95
One number is 15 more than other
To find -
Both number
Solution -
Let us think first number as x.
Because other number is 15 more than first, so other number will be x + 15
first number = x
second number = x+15
first number + second number = 95
=> x + x + 15 = 95
=> 2x + 15 = 95
=> 2x = 95-15
=> 2×x = 80
=> x = 80÷2
=> x = 40
First number = x = 40
Second number = x + 15 = 40+15 = 55
Both number's sum = 95 and second exceeds the first by 15.
hope it helps.
