Question 1027121
The difference between two numbers is 25. Two times the larger number is 12 times the smaller number. Find the numbers. 
------
x - y = 25
That means the "x" is the larger number.
-----
2x = 12y
-----
x = 6y
-----
Substitute for "x" and solve for "y"::
6y-y = 25
5y = 25
y = 5
------------
Solve for "x"::
x = y+25
x = 30
Notice that "x" is the larger number.
