Question

One number is 7 more than twice another. If their difference is 22, what is the larger number?

Answer 1

Answer:

37

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : One number is 7 more than twice another.

To Find : If their difference is 22, what is the larger number?

Solution :

Let Another number be x

Since we are given that One number is 7 more than twice another.

⇒2x+7

We are also given that the difference between these numbers is 22

⇒2x+7-x=22

⇒x+7=22

⇒x=22-7

⇒x = 15

Thus the another number is 15

One number = 2x+7 =(2*15)+7 =30+7 =37

Thus the larger number is 37

Hence Option B is correct

Answer 2

The larger number is 37 :) the smaller is 15
