Answer 2

Answer:

27 and 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers are a and b( a > b ).

According to the situations given :

  Sum of a and b is 63   ⇒ a + b = 63

  Difference b/w a and b is 9  ⇒ a - b = 9

⇒ a + b = 63

⇒ a = 63 - b

⇒ a - b = 9

⇒ 63 - b - b = 9

⇒ 63 - 2b = 9

⇒ 63 - 9 = 2b

⇒ 54 = 2b

⇒ 27 = b

Thus,

       a - b = 9

       a - 27 = 9

       a = 9 + 27

       a = 36

Numbers are 27 and 36.
