Isabella · Answer

Let the two numbers be x and y.

According to the question,

x + y = 50 ___ eq.(i)

x – y = 10 ___ eq.(ii)

By adding both the equation, we get

2x = 60

or, x = 60/2 = 30

By putting the value of x in eq.(i), we get

30 + y = 50

or, y = 50 – 30 = 20

Answer:

The two numbers are 30 and 20 respectively.
