Question

what are those two numbers whose sum is 58 and difference is 28?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the two numbers be x and y,then according to the question,

x+y=58 and x−y=28

Adding the above two equations

x+y+x−y=58+28

2x=86

x=43

Putting the value of x in any of the equations

43+y=58

y=58=43=15

Therefore the numbers are 44 and 15
