Question

The sum of two number is 210 365 .If one of them is 1 02 858 find their difference

Answer 1

Answer: ±4649

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two numbers, let’s call them x and y.

From the question, we are told that:

   x+y = 210,365

   one of the numbers, let’s say x, = 102,858

From 1. we have:

102858+y=210365⇒y=210365−102858=107507

The difference of the numbers is either x - y or y - x

y−x=107507−102858=4649

x−y=−1×(y−x)=−4649

We have two numbers, let’s call them x and y.

From the question, we are told that:

The difference of the numbers is either x - y or y - x

y−x=107507−102858=4649

x−y=−1×(y−x)=−4649
