Answer: 33 and 28


Step-by-step explanation:

so, all we know is ? + ? = 61

if the larger number is 5 more than the smaller number, we can assume that..

33 + 28 = 61

a-first number
b- second number

a+b= 61
a= b+5, replace in the ecuation above
b+5+b= 61
2b+5= 61
2b= 61-5
2b= 56
b= 56/2
b= 28
a= 28+5= 33

the numbers are a= 33, b= 28
