1. Let's say x is a number. Let be one of the numbers, which is 38 less than the other, and plain ol' for the other. Set this up as an equation.

Add 38 on both sides.

Divide both sides by 2.
120 divided by 2 is 60.
So one number is 60, and the other number which is 38 less than the other, ( is 22.
Answer: 60 and 22

2. Again, x is one number, and the other number will be represented as .
Set this up into an equation once again.

Subtract 8 from both sides.

Divide both sides by 4.

But wait! We're not done yet! Let's find the other number. Plug in 7 into the place where the x is.

So the numbers are 7 and 29.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3. Let one number be x and another . Put it into an equation.

Now simplify.

To find the other number:
One number is 19 and the other is 11.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4. Let one number be x and another number .
Set it into an equation.

To find the other number:
So one number is 14 and another is 46.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
5. For this one, you only need one number, x. Put it into an equation.

Now simplify.

The number is 5.
