Question

THE SUM OF TWO NUMBERS IS 55.FIND THE NUMBERS IF ONE NUMBER IS 13 GREATER THAN ANOTHER NUMBER

Answer 1

Let the first number be x and second be y

Since x = 13 + y

=) x + y = 55

=) 13+y + y = 55

=) 2y = 55-13=42

=) y = 42/2=21
Then x = 21+13=34

Hence two numbers are 21 and 34 .

Hope it's helpful to u.

Answer 2

let one no. be x ,
then other no. will be X +13
sum of nos. = x + x+ 13
55 = 2x + 13
2x = 42
x = 21
