Question

The sum of two numbers is 26 and their difference is 10 find the numbers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let two numbers be x & y

x−y=26 ____ (1)

x=3y ____ (2)

substituting (2) in (1) we get

3y−y−26

2y=26

y=13

x=3y from (2)

x=3×13

x=39

we need to find sum of two numbers

x+y=39+13

=52

Answer 2

x+(x+10)= 26

2x+10 =26

2x=26-10=16

x=16/2=8

numbers are 8 and 18
