12:18 is a 2:3 ratio of pink to blue
If this ratio continues for the population of the box;
the ratio has 5 parts. 100/5 = 20. Each part is 20.
2 * 20 = 40
3 * 20 = 60
P:B = 40:60
40 pink chips and 60 blue chips

Find two consecutive integers whose sum is 67. Which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem?
Hunter-Best [27]
The desired answer is probably that
  2x + 1 = 67
is the equation that can be used to solve the problem. In this case, x represents the smallest integer.

_____
I like to work problems in consecutive integers by considering their average. Here, it is 67/2 = 33.5. The two consecutive integers whose average is 33.5 are 33 and 34, the solution to the problem. For this, the first equation applies, where x is the value halfway between the two integers. (This answer (2x=67) would likely get marked wrong by your computer grading system.)
