Solve the following numerical problems.
Two force of $12N$ and $25N$ act on a body to the left hand side, while another force of $35N$ acts on it to the right hand side. Find the resultant of the force.

Total forces acting to the left $=12$ N $+25$ N $=37$ N

Force acting to the right $=35$ N

The resultant force on the body

$=$ difference between the magnitude of the forces

$=37$ N $–35$ N $=2$ N

The object will move in the direction in which the force of $37$ N is being applied,

i.e., the resultant force of $2$ N will act to the left.
