Correct Question:

The sum of two natura numbers is 25 and their difference is 7 the number are a) 17 & 8 b) 16&9 c) 18&7 d)18&7.

Answer

Option b) 16 and 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the first natural number is x and second natural number is y.

The sum of two natural numbers is 25.

→ x + y = 25

→ x = 25 - y

The difference of the two natural numbers is 7.

→ x - y = 7

→ x = 7 + y

On comparing both, we get

→ 25 - y = 7 + y

→ 25 - 7 = y + y

→ 18 = 2y

→ 9 = y

Substitute value of y = 9 in x = 25 - y

→ x = 25 - 9

→ x = 16

Hence, the two natural numbers are 16 and 9.
