Explanation:

Hey there!!

Here, According to the question;

Let one number be x then another number will be x+37. (as one number is 37 more than other number. )

Now,

Their sum is 91.

It would be like;


x + (x + 37) = 37


2x + 37 = 91


2x = 91 - 37


x = (54)/(2)

Therefore the value of x is 27.

So, one number is 27 and another number is 64.

Hope it helps....
