21 + 37 = 58
How It's SolvedLet x represent one of the numbers and x - 16 represent the other. Set up the equation and solve:
x + x - 16 = 58 (then simplify)
2x - 16 = 58 (then add 16 to eaxh side to separate the unknown number)
2x = 74 (then divide by 2 to find the value of x)
x = 37 (this is one of the numbers)
Subtract 16 to find the other number:
37 - 16 = 21
The two numbers are 21 and 37.
I know this is a long way to give the same answer as above, but the gist of the lesson is to learn how to solve such problems.
The two numbers whose sum is 58 and whose difference is 16 are 21 and 37.
If you're looking for two numbers whose difference is 152, there are an infinite number of solutions. Try 155 and 3.
