Question

the sum of two numbers is 25. if thrice the smaller number is subtracted from twice the large number, the subtraction is also 25. find the numbers ​

Answer 1

Answer:

5 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two number be X and y

where x is smaller y is larger

According to question

x + y = 25---(2

2y - 3x = 25---(1

on equating -(1 and -(2

X + y = 2y - 3x

4x = y

Now

from --(1

5x = 25

x = 5

so

y =4*5 = 20

Answer 2

Answer:

5 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

X+Y=25

Y=25-X..(1)

ATQ

2Y-3X=25

2(25-X)-3X=25....FROM.. (1)

50-2X-3X=25

-5X=-25

X=5

HENCE,Y=25-X=20 ANS
