Answer:
If the sum of two numbers is 13 and their difference is 3 then the numbers are 8 and 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us consider two numbers x and y, it is given in the question that the sum of the two numbers is 13, we can write this in the form of an equation as:
x+y=13..(i)
And it is also given that the difference between the numbers is 3,
x-y=3..(ii)
Solving equations (i) and (ii) simultaneously we get,
2x=13+3
2x=16
x=8
substituting x=8 in equation (i)
x+y=13
8+y=13
y=13-8=5
Thus the two numbers are 8 and 5.
