Question

the sum of two number is 12 the difference is 8 what is the numbers​

Answer 1

Answer:

question::--) What is the sum of two numbers if 12 and their difference is 8?

answer::--}

Long complicated answer:

Since the sum of two numbers is twelve, and their difference is 8, we can work it out like this:

The difference between the two numbers is 8, so that means by taking the sum (12), or total of the two numbers, and subtracting/deducting/taking away 8 from the larger unknown number, we get the two numbers with the same value, and we can find the two numbers with the same value (after we subtracted the extra of the larger value) by splitting the number evenly into two.

The equation is as follows:

12(total) - 8(excess of larger number) = 4 (total of the two numbers with equal values)

4 (remainder) / 2 (number of values/numbers) = 2 (value of values/numbers)

Now to find the larger number, we must add the 8 back.

8+2=10.

There you go, your values will be 10, and 2.

Short answer:

If you know how to draw models, these are the steps:

Draw a long bar at least ¼ or ⅛ of your paper's breadth (if your paper is aligned vertically. Else draw it 1/16 or 1/32 or 1/64).

Draw a shorter bar of any length(that is shorter than the previous bar drawn) since you do not know the shorter number (I assume you have not read the long answer).

Label the long bar 'Value A' and the shorter one 'Value B'.

Write a curly bracket around the breadths of the bars. Like this: =} (assume the bar’s breadth is the same as the bracket’s length).

Put the number 12 at the end of the bracket.

At the place where the two bars no longer meet, draw another curly bracket. And put 8 at the end of it. (The bracket should be aligned horizontally).

Draw and equation: 12–8=4 4/2=2 2+8=10.

Write the answer (assuming this is a worksheet problem) as ‘Larger number: 10, Smaller number: 2’.

If you want the equation:

12 - 8 = 4

4 / 2 = 2

2 + 8 = 10

If you want the answer:

10 and 2
