The sum of two numbers is 84 and one of them is 12 more than the other what are the two numbers​

The first number is x

The second number is y

So according to the given condition the sum of these two numbers is 84, so we can write

x+y=84 ————-(1)

Again one of them is more than 12 than the other that's why we can write,

x+12=y (2)

Now putting the values of y in equation (1) we get,

x+x+12=84

=>2x+12=84

=>2x+12–12=84–12

=>2x=72

=>2x/2=72/2

=>x=36

Taking the value of x in equation(2) we get,

36+12=y

=>y=48

The two numbers are 48 and 36.

Check:

48+36=84

=>84=84

Also 48 =36+12; which is more than 12 of 36.
