Answer: <u><em>The first no. is 6 and the second no. is 4.</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation: Let the 2 no. s be x and y respectively.

→x+ 2y = 14

<em>→x-y = 2 </em>

<em>∴ x = 2+y</em>

<em>y = y</em>

∴ x+2y=14

= 2+y+2y=14

3y=14-2

3y=12 , y = 12/3=4

∴y = 4

→x = 2+y

= 2+4=6

∴x=6

<u><em>Thus, the first no. is 6 and the second no. is 4.</em></u>
