To find the two numbers, we can set up an equation.

Let x be one of the numbers. According to the problem, the second number is 9.5 more than x, so we can express it as x + 9.5.

Given:

The sum of the two numbers is 75.5.

We can write the equation:
x + (x + 9.5) = 75.5

Then, solve for x:

x + (x + 9.5) = 75.5
