Question

F) One number is 78 more than

Answer 1

Answer:

The larger number = 116

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number = x

Given that one number is 78 more than  another, so

The larger number = x+78

Given that if we add 12 to the  smaller number, the result is 50, so

$x+12=50$

subtract 12 from both sides

$x+12-12=50-12$

Simplify

$x=38$

Therefore,

• The smaller number = 38

• The larger number = x+78 = 38+78 = 116

Thus, the larger number = 116
