56÷2=28
28-1=27
so the smaller number is 27
(8-3)²-(5-2)²
Follow the PEMDAS
P-Parenthesis
E-Exponents
M/D-Multiplication/Division
A/S-Addition/Subtraction
clear the numerals in the parenthesis:
(5)²-(3)²
Now do the exponents:
=25-9
=16
Its just: (5)²-(3)²

Can also be solved by counting the fractional cubes.
To solve this, set up two equations using the information you're given. Let's call our two numbers a and b:
1) D<span>ifference of two numbers is 90
a - b (difference of two numbers) = 90
2) The quotient of these two numbers is 10
a/b (quotient of the two numbers) = 10
Now you can solve for the two numbers.
1) Solve the second equation for one of the variables. Let's solve for a:
a/b = 10
a = 10b
2) Plug a =10b into the first equation and solve for the value of b:
a - b = 90
10b - b = 90
9b = 90
b = 10
3) Using b = 10, plug it back into one of the equations to find the value of a. I'll plug it back into the first equation:
a - b = 90
a - 10 = 90
a = 100
