    46 and 59

    Step-by-step explanation:

    let the smaller number be n then the larger number is n + 13 and summing them gives the equation

    n + n + 13 = 105

    2n + 13 = 105 (subtract 13 from both sides of the equation)

    2n = 92 (divide both sides by 2)

    n = 46

    the 2 numbers are n = 46 and n + 13 = 46 + 13 = 59

    The 2 numbers are 46 and 59.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the larger number be x then the smaller number is x - 13.

    Therefore x + x - 13 = 105

    2x = 105 + 13 = 118

    x = 59.

    and smaller number = 46.
