The two numbers whose sum is 70 and has a difference of 24 is 23 and 47

Let

x = smaller number

y = Larger number

y + x = 70 (1)

y - x = 24 (2)

subtract (2) from (1) be to eliminate y

x - (-x) = 70 - 24

x + x = 46

2x = 46

x = 46 / 2

x = 23

substitute x = 23 into (1)

y + x = 70

y + 23 = 70

y = 70 - 23

y = 47

Therefore, two numbers whose sum is 70 and has a difference of 24 is 23 and 47
