The sum of two numbers is 137 and their difference is 43. Find the numbers.
Let the two numbers be x and y.
According to question -
x + y = 137.....(1)
x - y = 43.....(2)
Adding equations (1) and (2) , we get -
2x = 180
∴ x = 90
substituting the value of x in equation (2), we get -
y = 90 - 43 = 47
Thus, the numbers are 90 and 47.
