Answer:
greater no.=124
smaller no. = 95
Step-by-step explanation:
let the greater no. be x and second be y
so,.
x-y= 29
x = 29 + y. (1)
according to the question,
4y/5 - x/2 = 14
on substituting the values
4y/5 -(29+y)/2 = 14
4y/5 - 29/2 - y/2 = 14
8y/10 - 145/10 - 5y/10 = 14
(8y-145-5y)/10 =14
3y-145=140
3y=140+145
y=285/3
= 95
now,
x = 29+y
=29+95
= 124
