Question

sum of two numbers is 95. if one exceeds The Other by, find the number

Answer 1

exceeds means to add so the answer was 40

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x.

One exceeds the other by 15 find the number. :]

So, Second number will be (x + 15)

The sum of two numbers = 95 .....[Given]

According to question now,

➳ x + (x + 15) = 95

➳ x + x + 15 = 95

➳ 2x + 15 = 95

➳ 2x = 95 - 15

➳ 2x = 80

➳ x = 80/2

➳ x = 40

Therefore,

First number = x = 40

Second number = x + 15 = 40 + 15 = 55
