The sum of two numbers is 46 and their
difference is 20. What is the smaller
number?

x = 33

y = 13

okay

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers be x and y

given :

x + y = 46

x - y = 20

by adding both equations

=》x + y + x - y = 46 + 20

=》2x = 66

=》x = 66 / 2

=》x = 33

by putting the Value of x in 1st equation

=》x + y = 46

=》33 + y = 46

=》 y = 46 - 33

=》 y = 13
