Answer:
1st number = 45

Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of two number = 99
Let One number be x
Another number = x + 9
The 1st and 2nd number
According to the question :
(x) + (x+9) = 99
=> 2x + 9 = 99
=> 2x = 99 - 9
=> 2x = 90
=> x = 90/2
=> x = 45
1st number = x = 45
2nd number = x+9 = 45+9 = 54
45 + (45+9)
= 45 + 54
= 99
