    Step-by-step explanation:

    If we call the two numbers

    a

    and

    b

    , then we are told:

    a

    +

    b

    =

    19

    a

    -

    b

    =

    7

    Adding these two equations we get:

    2

    a

    =

    26

    Subtracting the second from the first we get:

    2

    b

    =

    12

    Dividing each of these latter equations by

    2

    we get:

    a

    =

    13

    b

    =
