let the numbers be x and y
\n" ); document.write( "sum of numbers is 185\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x+y =185-----------(1)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "differnce is 57\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x-y =57------------- (2)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(1) +(2) =
\n" ); document.write( " x+y=185
\n" ); document.write( " x-y=57\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "=> 2x= 242
\n" ); document.write( " x=242/2
\n" ); document.write( " x=121\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x-y=57
\n" ); document.write( "121 -y=57
\n" ); document.write( "-y=57-121
\n" ); document.write( "-y= -64
\n" ); document.write( "y=64\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "therfore the two numbers are
\n" ); document.write( "121 and 64 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
