Question

The sum of two integers is 38, and their difference is 12. What are the two numbers?

Answer 1

x + (x-12) = 38

2x = 50

x= 25

Another number is 25-12 = 13

Answer 2

so ... the numbers 25 and 13 added equals to the sum of 38 ... when you subtract 13 from 25, your difference is 12. Therefore, your answer is 25+13= 28 and 25-13= 12 .
