Take away 134 from the total, so that both numbers are of equal value:

436 - 134 = 302


Divide by 2 to find the smaller number:

302 ÷ 2 = 151


Add back the 134 to find the bigger number:

151 + 134 = 285


Answer: The two numbers are 151 and 285

Lets say x is the smaller number and y is the bigger number.


x + y = 436

x + 134 = y


We can substitute the second equation into the first (substitute x + 134 in for y)


x + (x+134) = 436


2x + 134 = 436


2x = 302


x = 151


We can now plug this back into either formula (i use the second)


151 + 134 = b


b = 285


The 2 numbers are 151 and 285

HELP! 20 POINTS

Work problems are solved by first figuring out how much of the job they can do  in each hour. Shawn can do 1/4 of the job in an hour and Ellie can do 1/6 of the job in an hour. 1/6+1/4=2/12+3/12=5/12. This means that they can do 5/12 of the job an hour. This means that together they can do the job in 2 2/5 hours. The foreman is obviously wrong because first of all Shawn can do it alone in 4 hours, so with Ellie he will do it faster, and second of all 2 2/5<5. Hope this helped!
