Answer 2

$\underline{\underline{\underline{\underline{\mathfrak{\blue{ \:\:\:Solution:-\:\:\:}}}}}}$

Required answer:

• The two numbers are 46 and 49.

Given information:

• Sum of two numbers is 95.
• One exceeds the other by 3.

Need to find out:

• The two numbers is = ?

$\underline{\underline{\underline{\underline{\mathfrak{\blue{ \:\:\: Explanation:-\:\:\:}}}}}}$

Let the one number = x

Then,

• The other number = x + 3

According to the given question:

=> x + x + 3 = 95

=> 2x + 3 = 95

=> 2x = 95 - 3

=> 2x = 92

=> x = 46

So,

• The number is 46.

Therefore,

• Other number = 46 + 3 = 49

$\underline{\underline{\underline{\underline{\mathfrak{\blue{ \:\:\: Check:-\:\:\:}}}}}}$

=> 46 + 48

=> 95

• i.e. the sum of two numbers is 95.
