Let x represent one of the numbers and (x - 2) the other number and set it up:
x + (x - 2) = 40
2x - 2 = 40
2x = 42
x = 21
The two numbers are 21 (x), and 19 (x - 2).

Two numbers have a sum of 40 the difference is 10 what are the two numbers?
2 Numbers are a and b. We have( a>b) a+b=40(1) and a-b=10(2) a=10+b( from 2. Subtracts both side by b) => 10+b+b=40 (from 1. Substitute a with 10+b) => 10+2b =40 => 2b =30 => b =15 =>a=10+15=25 => a=25 b=15.
What is the answer when you add all numbers from 40 to 60?
