The larger of two numbers is 12 more than the smaller number. if the sum of the two numbers is 74,find the two numbers

Small and big number respectively are 31 and 43

Given that;

Larger number is 12 more than smaller number

Sum of both number is 74

Find:

Both number

Computation:

Assume;

Smaller number = a

So,

Large number = 12 + a

So,

a + 12 + a = 74

2a + 12 = 74

2a = 62

a = 31

Smaller number = 32

Large number = 12 + a

Large number = 12 + 31

Large number =  43
