Question from Blake, a student: The sum of two numbers is 52 and the difference is 10. What are the numbers? i used to be real good at this stuff? |
Blake,
Suppose the sum of two numbers is 52 and the difference between them is 0. The numbers are then two copies of 26. How far do they have to move apart before the difference between them is 10?
