You can you 72 which would make 2/8 18/72 and 3/9 24/72 which makes the sum 42/72.
X+y=62 ; x-y=12 Solve for x in one equation and plug that value into the other equation. ===> x=12+y ; 12+y+y=62 Subtract 12 to both sides (2y=50), then divide by 2 to find y (y=25). Now, plug 25 as y into x=12+y, getting x=37. Your two numbers are 37 and 25.
Simplify the expression

Answer:
x=5
Explanation:
We need to get x to stand by itself on one side of the equation.
4x-2 = 3x+3 ← add 2 to each side
4x = 3x+5 ← subtract 3x from each side
x = 5 ← final answer
