Answer:
A = 22
B = 19
Explanation:
Numbers one and two will be a variable A and B respectively.
A + B = 41 Equation one
A + B = 5 Equation two
Isolate one of the variables. Let's use A
A + B = 41 = A = 41 - B
Now replace the A in Equation two.
(41 - B) - B = 5
Simplify: 41 - 2B = 5
Isolate variable: 38 = 2B --> B = 19
Use the value of B to find A
A = 41 - B = 41 - 19 = 22
So the answer is A = 22 and B =19
