Solution 1
Let and be positive integers such that m>n and m+n=28. It follows that m=2n+d for some positive integer $d.$ We wish to find the number of possible values for $d.$ By substitution, we have (2n+d)+n=28, from which d=28-3n. Note that each generate a positive integer for $d,$ so there are 9 possible values for $d.$
