Answer:
The numbers are 19 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first number be x
Let the second number be y
Therefore,
x +y = 27 and,
x-y = 11.
Adding both equations,
x+y+x-y = 38
Therefore, 2x = 38.
Thus, x = 19
Replacing it in the first eqn, y = 8.
Therefore, the two numbers are 19 and 8 respectively.
