Question

The Sum
of two numbers is 72
If one of two number is 6more than the
Othee find the numbees.​

Answer 1

Answer:

39 and 33

Step-by-step explanation:

let first number be x

then other will be x-6

Their sum is given to be 72

x + (x-6) = 72

x + x -6 = 72

2x -6 = 72

2x = 78

x = 78/2

x = 39

Other number will be x - 6 = 39 -6 = 33

Answer 2

HOPE IT HELPS !!!! MARK ME AS BRAINLIEST .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y.

As per statement, the sum of these two numbers is 72. Thus

x + y = 72…Eq.1

One of the numbers, x is six more than twice the other, means y. Thus

x = 2×y + 6 …Eq.2

Now putting the value of x from Eq.2 to Eq.1

x + y = 72

(2×y + 6) + y = 72

2y + 6 + , ya = 72

3y = 72 - 6

3y = 66

y = 22

Now putting the value of y from above in Eq..1

x + y = 72

x + 22 = 72

x = 72–22

x = 50

Thus two numbers are 50 and 22.
