Sum of two numbers be 95. if one exceeds the other by 15, find the number​

Sum of two number = 95

Let the first number be x, then another number be x + 15.

According to the question, x + x + 15 = 95

=>2x+15=95

=>2x+15-15=95-15

=>2x=80

=>x=40

Hence, the first number = 40

And another number = 40 + 15 = 55.
