Answer 2

Answer : 16

Explanation :

here we have given,

the sum of two numbers is 45,

let us consider the numbers are x and y,

• ∴ x + y = 45 ------(1)

first number is exceed the second by 13

• ∴ x = y + 13

put the value of x in equation (1)

⇛ x + y = 45

⇛ (y + 13) + y = 45

⇛ 2y + 13 = 45

⇛ 2y = 45 - 13

⇛ 2y = 32

hence y = 16

therefore the second number y is 16
