Question

the sum of two factors of 36 is 21 and their diffeence is 3. what are these factors​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the two numbers be x and y.

As per question sum of two eq(2)

On Adding equation 1 and 2 we get

                                    x+y=35

                                     x−y=13

                                  ____________

                                      2x=48

                               Therefore x=24

As per equation (1) x+y=35

Putting the value of x we get,24+y=35

                                 Therefore y=11
