HI!!

OpenStudy (misty1212):

maybe we could just make a guess and see what this could look like then do the algebra

OpenStudy (misty1212):

we could guess 10 and 20 then half the smaller one is 5, but 5 + 12 is not 20 so that is not the correct answer

OpenStudy (misty1212):

how about 12 and 18?
