could someone help me with math please?

Question

Two numbers have a sum of 25. One number is 5 more than the other. Find the numbers. 

Answer 1

hello Jared,

let the smaller number be x, and the larger number is y then:

x+y=25 and x+5=y

solving, by substitution or elimination, you get

x=10 and y=15

I hope this answers your question!
