Q) Half of the difference between two numbers is 2. The sum of the greater and twice the smaller number is 13. Find the numbers.

Ans:

Let the numbers be x and y. Here, x > y 

Therefore  ½ (x- y) = 2 ………….. 1 

and 2y + x = 13 ………… (ii) 

By Solving the above 2 equations (i) and (ii), we get  x = 7, y = 3
