Larger number = x + 51

Sum = 461

x + x + 51 = 461

2x + 51 = 461

2x = 410

x = 205

Smaller number = x = 205

Larger number = x + 51 = 256

Answer 2

Given :-

• The sum of two numbers is 461 . The larger number is 51 more than the smaller number

To Find :-

• Numbers

Solution :-

⟼ Let the First Number be x

⟼ Then Second Number will be x + 51

According to the Question :

➞ Sum of Numbers = 461

➞ x + x + 51 = 461

➞ x + x = 461 - 51

➞ x + x = 410

➞ 2x = 410

➞ x = 410 / 2

➞ x = 205

________________

Therefore :

• First Number = x = 205
• Second Number = x + 51 = 205 + 51 = 256
