Question

the sum of two numbers is 10 and their difference is 2 what are the two numbers the graeter one and the smaller one?

Answer 1

Answer:

answer is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

we can understand it like

5+5 = 10

6+4 = 10

...........................................and many. more are there but we got our point

6+4 = 10 sum

6-4 = 2 difference

6 is greater one and 4 is smaller one

Answer 2

Answer:

Let one number be x.

Let another number be y.

ATQ,

x+y=10........eq-1.

ATQ,

x-y=2.........eq-2.

On adding both eq-1 and eq-2 we get:

2x=12

x=6

Put the value of x in eq-2 we get:

x-y=2

6-y=2

y=6-2

y=4

.: one number =x=6

another number =y=4

6 is greater.

4 is smaller.
