Let one be x and one be y.
So 2x + 2y = 36.
x + y = 18 and since one number is 10, the other number is 18-10 = 8.

The other number is 8

Given :

  • Twice the sum of two numbers is 36

  • One number is 10

To find :

The other number

Solution :

Step 1 of 2 :

Form the equation

Here it is given that twice the sum of two numbers is 36

One number is 10

Let the other number = x

Then sum of x and 10 = x + 10

By the given condition

\displaystyle \sf{2(x + 10) = 36  }

Step 2 of 2 :

Find the other number

\displaystyle \sf{2(x + 10) = 36  }

\displaystyle \sf{ \implies (x + 10) =  \frac{36}{2} }

\displaystyle \sf{ \implies x + 10 = 18}

\displaystyle \sf{ \implies x  = 18 - 10}

\displaystyle \sf{ \implies x  = 8}

Hence the required other number = 8
