Question

The sum of the sum and difference of two numbers is twice the greater number. True or False and How?​

Answer 1

Answer:

When you have a sum and a difference and add them together, that is the same as doubling one of them.

For example, if the two numbers are 7 and 4, then the sum is 11 and the difference is 3.

Adding the sum to the difference is ( a + b ) + ( a - b ) which is a + b + a - b = 2a.
