Answer:

10 and 15

Step-by-step explanation:

let's denote the first number as x and the second number as y.

Given:

1. The sum of two numbers is 25:

x + y = 25

     

2. The second number is 5 more than the first number:

     

y = x + 5

Now, we can substitute the second equation into the first equation to find the values of x and y.

Substitute y = x + 5 into x + y = 25:

x + (x + 5) = 25

2x + 5 = 25

2x = 20

x = 10      

      

Now, substitute x = 10 back into y = x + 5 to find y :

     

y = 10 + 5

y = 15  

Therefore, the first number is 10 and the second number is 15.

another answer:

The sum of the two numbers is 25, which means the first number plus the second number is 25. Let's say the first number is x. Then the second number is x + 5.

So, we have the equation x + (x + 5) = 25.

Solving this equation, we find that x = 10.

The first number is 10 and the second number is 10+5 = 15.

So, the numbers are 10 and 15.
