Answer 1

Answer:

hey there! to find the answer to your question, let us first take the 2 numbers as 8x and 7x.

Explanation:

So as per. q- Sum of the 2 numbers- 60.

8x+7x= 60.

15×=60 ( adding the constant term of the variables)

×= 60 divided by 15( finding x by bringing to the other side)

×= 4.

So the 2 numbers are - 8x= 8* 4= 32

7x- 7* 4= 28.

Verification- 32+ 28= 60.

Hope it helped you :)
