Answer:
The numbers are 5 and 20 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let two numbers are x and y.
According to question-
x + y = 25...............................(i)
Given x is smaller number and y is larger number.
then,
2 y - 3 x = 25..........................(ii)
To solve equation (i) and (ii)-
Firstly multiply by 3 in equation (i) and then add in equation (ii)-
3 x + 3 y = 75
- 3 x + 2 y = 25
5 y = 100
y = 20
Put y = 100 in equation (i)-
We get,
x = 25 - 20
x = 5
Therefore x = 5 and y = 20 .
Answer:
5 and 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be x and y
and x be the smaller number
Then
y+x=25...eqn(1)x2
2y-3x=25...eqn(2)x1
2y+2x=50
2y-3x=25
Subtract eqn 2 from 1
then,
5x=25
x=5
substitute the value of x in eqn 1
y+5=25
y=25-5
y=20
Therefore the numbers are 20 and 5
