Answer:
None of the answer choices are correct as per the wording of the question

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the larger number and y be the smaller number

We get the following relations between x and y

x + y = 1476890 (1)  given

x - y = 1500 (2) since x > y result is positive

Adding equations (1) and (2) we get:

(x + y ) + (x -y) = 1476890 + 1500 -= 1478390 (3)

LHS of equation (3) works to x + y + x - y = 2x (y's cancel out)

This reduces equation (3) to

2x = 1478390 (4)

yielding

x = 1478390/2 = 739195

This is not one of the answer choices.

If the question were reworded to ask..what is the smaller number, then the answer would be 737695 which is choice B

Proof:

If x = 739195, then from Equation (2) above, y = x - 1500 which is
739195 - 1500 = 737695
