Question

Sum of two numbers is 95. If one exceeds the other by 35 find the numbers.

Answer 1

y+z=95

y=z+35

z+35+z=95

2z=60

z=30

y=65

Answer 2

Answer:

30 and 65

Step-By-Step Explanation:

Let one of the numbers be= x.

Then, the other number becomes x + 35

According to the question,

x + x + 35 = 95

⇒ 2x + 35 = 95

⇒ 2x = 95 – 35

⇒ 2x = 60

⇒ x = 60/2

⇒ x = 30

First number = x = 30

And, other number = x + 35 = 30 + 35 = 65
