So, Let's assume that the numbers are X and Y respectively.
As per the first equation, the sum of the numbers is 35. hence , the equation:
X + Y = 35 Equation (1)
As per the second part of the question, the differnce of the numbers is 13. hence, the equation:
X - Y = 13 Equation (

Let the two numbers be x and y (x&get;y)
According questions
x+y=35. (1)
And x-y=13. (2)
Adding eq (1) and eq (2), we have
2x=48
=&get; x=48/2
=24
From (1), y=35-x=35-24=11
Therefore: the required numbers are 24 and 11.
