Question

The difference between two numbers is 803 when the greater number is 1050 find the smaller one

​

Answer 1

247

Explanation:

Let's denote the greater number as G and the smaller number as S. The difference between the two numbers is 803, and the greater number is 1050.

The equation would be:

`\[ G - S = 803 \]`

Given that the greater number G is 1050:

`\[ 1050 - S = 803 \]`

Now, solve for S:

`\[ S = 1050 - 803 \]`

`\[ S = 247 \]`

So, the smaller number is 247.
