Question

the sum of two numbers is 53 and their difference is 25 . find the number

Answer 1

according to the condition of the question

let the first number be x

let the second number be y

x+y=53

x-y=25

on adding both the equations

2y=78

y=78/2

y=39

putting it in the first equation

x+39=53

x=53-39

x=14

so the numbers are 39 and 14

Answer 2

according to the question

net the first number BX

let second number b y on adding both to y equals to 78

y=39

putting in the first equation

X + 39 = 253, X equals to 53 - 39 x = 2 14
