Answer:

x+(x+4)=52

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's name the smaller number x.

The greater number would then be (x+4).

<em>The sum of two numbers means we are adding them together.</em>

<u>The equation we could then set up would be:</u>

x+(x+4)=52

<em>Now we can solve the equation to find the two numbers if needed.</em>

<u>Here is how:</u>

x+x+4=52

Combine like terms.

2x+4=52

Subtract 4 from both sides.

2x=48

Divide both sides by 2

x=24

The smaller number is 24.

24+4=28

The larger number is 28.
