\longrightarrow{\blue{ [( - 16)\div 4) \div ( - 2)] \:is\:not\:equal\:to\:( - 16) \div [4 \div( - 2) ]   }}

[( - 16 )\div 4) \div ( - 2)] = ( - 16) \div [4 \div( - 2) ]

Let us first solve for L. H. S.

= [( - 16 )\div 4) \div ( - 2)]

= [ (\frac{ - 16}{4}  )\div ( - 2)]

=  \frac{( - 4)}{( - 2)}

= 2

Now, R. H S.

( - 16) \div [4 \div ( - 2)]

=  \frac{ - 16}{ - 2}

= 8

L. H. S. ≠ R. H. S.

Hence, [( - 16) \div 4) \div( - 2)] ≠(-16)\div [4 \div( - 2) ]

Let greater no. Is x
and smaller no.is y
so x-y=1
And x+y=19
Eliminating both eq.we get2x=20
x=10
So 10-y=1
so y=10-1
y=9
One no. is x=10
And other no.is y=9
