Question

The difference between two numbers is 14937 if the greater of the two numbers is 59002,find their sum

Answer 1

Let the smaller number be a

According to question,

59002 - a = 14937

=> a = 59002 - 14937

=> a = 44065

Smaller number = 44065

Required sum = 44065 + 59002

= 103067

Answer 2

Answer:

Their sum is 103067 .  

Step-by-step explanation:

If two numbers are given and we have to find the difference between them, then 1st we have to find the larger and smaller number, after that we have to apply the formula:

           Difference = Greater number - smaller number

• Finding the numbers: The difference between two numbers = 14937 and the greater number is 59002. We have to find out the smaller number.

As we know, difference = Greater number - smaller number  

                         Smaller number = Greater number - difference

                                                     = 59002 - 14937 = 44065

• Finding the sum:  Greater number = 59002

                               and   smaller number = 44065  

   The sum of the numbers = greater number + smaller number

                                             = 59002 + 44065   = 103067
