Answer:
the required numbers are 57 and 54
Step-by-step explanation:
given that,
the sum of two numbers is 111
let the numbers be x and y
so,
x + y = 111. .....(1)
also given that
one number exceeds the Other by 3
so,
x = y + 3
x - y = 3. .....(2)
now we,
x + y = 111. .....(1)
x - y = 3. .....(2)
adding both equations
x + y + x - y= 111 + 3
2x = 114
x = 114/2
x = 57
from (1)
x + y = 111
57 + y = 111
y = 111 - 57
y = 54
so,
the required numbers are
➪ 57 and 54
