Question

A number is more than half of another number by 4. The difference of these two numbers is 2. Find these numbers.​

Answer 1

10,12

Explanation:

let the two numbers be x and y

difference between x and y is 2

but y is ½x + 4

x -(½x+4) = 2

x - ½x - 4 = 2

½x = 6

x = 12

y = ½x + 4

y = 10
