Hello there!

Your question is:
The sum of two numbers is 24 and their difference is 2. What are the numbers

Let's start out by making the system of equations

x + y = 24
x - y = 2

Let's find all of the numbers that add up to make 24.

(1, 23)
(2, 22)
(3, 21)
(4, 20)
(5, 19)
(6, 18)
(7, 17)
(8, 16)
(9, 15)
(10, 14)
(11, 13)
(12, 12) 

Now, let's find the set where the first number is two more than the second.

Your answer is: (13, 11)

This means:

x = 13

y = 11

Hope I helped!
