Question

Two numbers are such that one number
is 42 more than the other stor number
and their average is equal to 40. Find the
two numbers?​

Answer 1

Let the two numbers be x and x + 45, then

x + x + 45 / 2 = 40

2 x + 45 = 80

2 x = 35

x = 35 / 2 = 17.5

First no. = 17.5

Second no. = 17.5 + 45 = 62.5

Answer 2

Let one no. be x
Then the other no. will be x + 45
Average = no. 1 + no. 2/2
40 = x + x + 45 divided by 2
2x = 80-45 = 35
x = 17.5
Other no. = 17.5 + 45 = 62.5
