Find two numbers with a sum of 20 and a difference of 14.

Solution:

Let the two numbers be x and y

x + y = 20 —-- (1)

And

x - y = 14 —-- (2)

Adding the equations (1) and (2) we get

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

Substituting x = 17 in (1) we get

y = 20 - 17 = 3

Find two numbers with a sum of 20 and a difference of 14.

Summary:

The two numbers with a sum of 20 and a difference of 14 are 17 and 3
