Let the two numbers be x and y with x being the greater number.
Given,
x = 7 + y
Also given,
x + y = 39
Substituting the value of x from above,
7 + y + y = 39
7 + 2y = 39
2y = 39 - 7
2y = 32
y = [tex] \frac{32}{2} [/tex]
y = 16
x = 7 + y
x = 7 + 16
x = 23
Hence, the two numbers are 23 and 16.

x + y =39
x = y+7
y+7 +y = 39
2y +7 = 39
2y =32
y = 32/2 = 16
x = 16+7 = 23
