[tex]\bold\red{\underline{Given:}}[/tex]
The sum of two number=125
[tex]\bold\green{\underline{Let:}}[/tex]
The first number be 2X-10
The second number be X
[tex]\bold\pink{\underline{A.T.Q}}[/tex]
⟹Sum of two number=125
⟹1st number+Second number=125
⟹2X-10+X=125
⟹3X=125+10
⟹3X=135
⟹X=135/3
⟹X=45
Hence,
2nd number=45
1st number=2*45-10=90-10=80
[tex]\bold\purple{\boxed{1st\: number=80}}[/tex]
[tex]\bold\orange{\boxed{2nd\: number=45}}[/tex]
