Sagot :

Given:

The sum of two numbers is 24. The second number is 6 more than the first number.

Answer:

The first number can be written as x, and the second number is x+6

x+(x+6) = 24

2x+6 = 24

2x = 24-6

2x = 18

2x/2 = 18/2

x = 9

Checking:

x= 9

x+(x+6) = 24

9+(9+6) = 24

9+15 = 24

24 = 24

Numbers:

9 and 15
