Let the number be x and y
x + y = 100
x - y = 99
Adding both
2x = 199
x = 199/2
So y = 100 - 199/2
y = 1/2

Let , the unknown numbers be A and B
According to the question ,
➡A + B = 100 --- (i)
➡A - B = 99 --- (ii)
Add the equation (i) and (ii)
➡A + B + ( A - B ) = 100 + 99
➡A + B + A - B = 199
➡2A = 199
➡A = 199 ÷ 2
Put the value of A = 199/2 in equation (i)
➡199/2 + B = 100
➡B = 100 - 199/2
➡B = 200 - 199 ÷ 2
➡B = 1/2
Hence , A = 199/2 and B = 1/2
