Answer:

let the two numbers be x and y be the numbers

then,

given

x+y=46..... 1

and x-y=25.

x=25+y....... 2

substitute x value in equation 1

25+y+y=46

2y+25=46

2y=46-25

2y=21

y=21/2

then substitute y value in equation 2

x=25+21/2

x=50+21/2

x=71/2

hence solved

The two numbers are

x=71/2 and y=21/2

you can verify by substituting in equation 1 and 2
