Answer:

<u>28.5 and 32.5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>create an equation to solve:</em>

x + (x+4) =61

2x + 4 = 61 combine like terms

2x = 57 subtract 4 from both sides

x = 28.5 divide 2 from both sides

28.5 is the smaller number

the larger number is 4 more so:

28.5 + 4 = 32.5

32.5 is the larger number

check your work:

28.5 + 32.5 = 61

Leokris [45]
First divided 140 by 100 to find out how much 1 percent is
140 ÷ 100 = 1.4

multiply 1.4 by 45 to find 45 %; 1.4 x 45 = 63

then add 63, which is 45%, to 140, which is 100%, and you get 203, which is 140 + 45%, or 145%
