Answer 2

$\huge\mathfrak\blue{Answer:}$

Given:

• We have been given that the sum of two numbers is 85.
• The greater number is 13 more than the smaller.

To Find:

• The two given number which satisfies the underlining condition.

Solution:

Let the smaller number = x

Greater number = ( x + 13 )

According to the Question we have

=> Sum of numbers = 85

=> x + ( x + 13 ) = 85

=> 2x + 13 = 85

=> 2x = 85 - 13

=> 2x = 72

=> x = 72/2

=> x = 36

Smaller Number ( x ) = 36

Greater Number ( x + 13 ) = 49

Hence Smaller number is 36 and Greater number is 49.
