Question #b5928

Answer 1

22 and 30

Explanation:

Smaller number= x
Larger number= x + 8

`(x+(x+8))=52`

`2x+8=52`

`2x=52-8`

`2x=44`

`x= 22 ->` smaller number

So...
larger number is x+8

22+8= 30

Answer 2

The numbers are 30 and 22.

Explanation:

Suppose,one number is `x` and the another is `x-8`.
According to problem,
`x+x-8=52`
`=>2x=60`
`=>x=30`
Then one number is 30 and the other is `30-8=22`
