The sum of two numbers is 83. The difference is 11. Find the two numbers.

x + y = 83

x - y = 11

x = 11 + y

11 + y + y = 83
2y = 72
y = 36

x + 36 = 83
x = 47

thank you so much.:)

You're very welcome.

I don't get it, can someone please explain-

oh lol nvm :)

Someone plz explain me :(

To find the two numbers, let's assume that one of the numbers is x.

According to the given information, the sum of the two numbers is 83. Therefore, the other number would be (83 - x).

Furthermore, the difference between the two numbers is 11. So, we can write this as an equation:

x - (83 - x) = 11

Simplifying the equation, we get:

x - 83 + x = 11

2x - 83 = 11

Next, we can isolate the variable x by adding 83 to both sides:

2x = 11 + 83

2x = 94

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for x:

x = 94 / 2

x = 47

So, one of the numbers is 47. To find the other number, subtract 47 from 83:

Other number = 83 - 47 = 36

Therefore, the two numbers are 47 and 36.
