Step-by-step explanation:

x= Number of small pages

y= Number of full pages

1 x + 1 y = 21 .............1

Total words

1200 x + 1500 y = 27000 .............2

Eliminate y

multiply (1)by -1500

Multiply (2) by 1

-1500 x -1500 y = -31500

1200 x + 1500 y = 27000

Add the two equations

-300 x = -4500

/ -300

x = 15

plug value of x in (1)

1 x + 1 y = 21

15 + y = 21

y = 21 -15

y = 6

y = 6

x= 15 Number of small pages

y= 6 Number of full pages
