Two numbers add to 436 and the first is 134 bigger than the second. what are the two numbers?

The two numbers are 151 and 285.

To determine the two numbers, let’s use two values to represent the two numbers

Therefore, you have:

N + M = 436

N + 134 = M

Now, you have to substitute the second equation into the first equation, therefore you have:

N + (N + 134) = 436

2N + 134 = 436

2N = 436 – 134

2N = 302

N = 302/2

N = 151

Thus, the smaller number is 151

To determine the bigger number (M), you have to substitute the value derived into the (N + 134 = M) second equation.

Therefore, you have:

151 + 134 = M

M = 285

To prove:

285 – 151 = 134

285 + 151 = 436

Therefore, the two numbers are 151 and 285.
