Answer:

15 and 27

Step-by-step explanation:

let the smaller number be n then the larger number is n + 12 and

n + n + 12 = 42, that is

2n + 12 = 42 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

2n = 30 ( divide both sides by 2 )

n = 15

and n + 12 = 15 + 12 = 27

The 2 numbers are 15 and 27

a school cafeteria makes cheese sauce for macaroni using 15 cups of Swiss cheese and 17 cups of cheddar cheese Perry tries to ma
deff fn [24]

No, Perry is not using the correct ratio, because 15:17 is not equivalent to 5:7

15 divided by 3 is indeed 5 but divided 17 by 3 does not give you 7, nor a whole number.



I hope this helps.
