  • Let's start by calling the two numbers we are looking for x and y.

  • The sum of x and y is 20. In other words, x plus y equals 20 and can be written as equation A:

x + y = 20

  • The difference between x and y is 6. In other words, x minus y equals 6 and can be written as equation B:

x - y = 6

  • Now solve equation B for x to get the revised equation B:

x - y = 6

x = 6 + y

  • Then substitute x in equation A from the revised equation B and then solve for y:

  • x + y = 20
  • 6 + y + y = 20
  • 6 + 2y = 20
  • 2y = 14
  • y = 7

  • Now we know y is 7. Which means that we can substitute y for 7 in equation A and solve for x:

  • x + y = 20
  • x + 7 = 20
  • X = 13

  • Summary: The sum of two numbers is 20 and their difference is 6. What are the two numbers?
  • Answer: 13 and 7 as proven here:

Sum: 13 + 7 = 20,

Difference: 13 - 7 = 6
