Answer:

The numbers are 39 and 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1, sum of the numbers:

 

x  +  y   =  53

 

Equation 2, difference of the numbers:

 

x  -  y  = 25

 

System of equations:

 

x  +  y  =  53

x  -  y   =  25

----------------

2x = 78

 

x = 39

 

Solve for y:

 

39  +  y  = 53

 

y  =  14

 

The numbers are 39 and 14.
