EXPLANATION :
GIVEN :-
- The sum of two numbers is 36 and their difference is 9.
TO FIND :-
- Two numbers.
SOLUTION :-
Let the two numbers be x and y.
Sum of two numbers= 36
Difference between two numbers=9
According to the question,
x + y = 36...............(i)
x - y = 9................(ii)
★By elimination :-
x + y = 36
x - y = 9
_______________
2x = 45
→ x = 45/2
→ x = 22.5
✪ Putting x = 22.5 in eq.(i)✪
x + y = 36
→22.5+y=36
→ y = 36-22.5
→ y = 13.5
Therefore, the two numbers are 22.5 and 13.5.
