Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:consecutive integers are represented by x, x+1 ,  so for this problem the greater one is represented by x + 1.

Now you need to translate the problem.  the greater is  seven less than 1/3 the smaller

--->  x + 1 = (1/3)*x - 7 --->  now solve for x (the smaller) and x+1  (the greater)

***hint:  to get rid of fractions in an equation you can always multiply EVERYTHING by the denominator , 3 in this case

To answer this question you will find out the total number of cupcakes donated and then calculate the amount of each flavor based on the percentage that is stated.

Here are the steps:

1. 12 x 10 x 12 (12 classes each donating 10 dozen) = 1440

2. 0.55 x 1440 (55% are chocolate) = 792 chocolate

3. 1440 - 792 (the remaining number of cupcakes)=648

4. 1/3(33 1/3%) x 648 = 216 red velvet

5. 1440 - 792 (chocolate) - 216 (red velvet) = 432 vanilla cupcakes

Chocolate-792
Red velvet - 216
Vanilla - 432
