First number = x + 7

And given:

You've got your answer already...

anonymous · Answer

some number = x
some number +7 = x+7
now combine them to equal to 63 and solve for x. 
so we have, 
        x+(x+7) = 63
         x = 28
now since you know the value of one x the other would be 28 + 7 = 35
