A sum requires two numbers. The sum of 11 and what?
The same is true for a difference.

Maybe you meant this: the sum of two numbers is 11 and their difference is 5. If so, you would set up a solution in the following way.
Let x = the larger number
Ley y = the smaller number
x + y = 11
x - y = 5
2x = 16
x = 8
x + y = 11
8 + y = 11
-8     = -8
y = 3
