    Question

    If the sum of two numbers is 35 and difference is 13 then both the numbers will be:

    A.

    20, 15

    B.

    23, 12

    C.

    24, 11

    D.

    None of these

    Correct option is C

    We are solving the following equations:

    x + y = 35
    x - y = 13

    Step 1: Add the two equations

    (x + y) + (x - y) = 35 + 13


    2x = 48 \implies​ x = 24


    Step 2: Subtract the second equation from the first

    (x + y) - (x - y) = 35 - 13


    2y = 22 \implies​ y = 11


    Step 3: Verification
    Sum: x + y = 24 + 11 = 35
    Difference: x - y = 24 - 11 = 13

    Thus, the two numbers are 24 and 11
