☆ Solution ☆
Given :-
- Two numbers differ by 5.
- Their sum is 19.
To Find :-
- The two numbers.
Step-by-Step-Explaination :-
Let,
- The first number be x
The second number be x - 5
According to the question :-
x + x - 5 = 19
2x = 19 + 5
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12
Thus,
- The first number = x = 12
- The second number = x - 5 = 12 - 5 = 7
Hence,
The two numbers are 12 and 7 .
