Answer :
The numbers are 6 and 4.
- Greater one = 6
- Smaller one = 4
Step-by-step explanation :
Let the two numbers be x and y
x - greater number
y - smaller number
- the sum of two numbers is 10
x + y = 10 ----(1)
- the difference of two numbers is 2
x - y = 2 ---- (2)
From equations (1) and (2) ,
Add both the equations,
x + y + x - y = 10 + 2
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6
=> x - y = 2
6 - y = 2
y = 6 - 2
y = 4
The greater number = 6
The smaller one = 4
