This problem, as written, requires a bit of guessing regarding your intentions. My interpretation is that you want to do this division:
2
----------
1 6/7
If that's correct, here's what to do: rewrite 1 6/7 as 13/7 (an improper fraction).
Then divide:
2
-------- This is equivalent to the multiplication (2/1)(7/13) = 14/13 (answer)
13/7

Answer:
The two numbers are
518
694
Step-by-step explanation:
As per requirements the two equations will be
X+Y=1212
X-Y=518
When we subtract these equations we get
X=1212-518
X=694
Now put the X value and find the Y value in any equation
X+Y= 1212
Y=1212-X
Where X = 694
Y=1212-694
Y=518
X=694 and Y=518
