Question

Sum of two numbers is 95. If one of the number exceeds the other by 15, then find the numbers

Answer 1

Answer:

$40$

$55$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x and the second number be x+15.

$x+x+15=95$

$2x+15=95$

$2x=80$

$x=40$

$95-40$

$=55$

Hence, the first number is 40 and the second number is 55.

Answer 2

Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

x + x + 15 = 95

2x + 15 = 95

x = 80/2 = 40
