Answer:
219,221
Step-by-step explanation:
the second number can be represented by the equation n1+2=n2
adding these expressions together you get
(n+2)+n=440
youre going to think of n now as just your first number because the equation solves for n1
with that you will get a number valued at 219
you then solve the first equation n1+2=n2 because we now know the value of n1
219+2=221
so the second numbers value is 221
