Answer:

11 and 52.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be x and the bigger number be x+41.

Smaller no. + bigger no. = 63

x + x + 41 = 63

Add like terms.

2x + 41 = 63

Isolate 2x.

2x = 63 - 41

    = 22

Find x.

x = 22 ÷ 2

Smaller number (x) = 11

Find x + 11.

x+41 = 11 + 41

Bigger number (x+41) = 52
