    a = 58

    b = 34

    Step-by-step explanation:

    a + b = 92

    a - b = 24

    add

    a + b + a - b = 92 + 24

    2a = 116

    a = 116 : 2

    a = 58

    b = 92 - 58

    b = 34

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the numbers be x and y

    x + y = 92 ... (1)

    x - y = 24 ... (2)

    Adding (1) and (2)

    2x = 116

    x = 116/2

    x = 58

    From (1) ... x + y = 92

    58 + y = 92

    y = 92 - 58

    y = 34
