Essentially, we must take 5% of $1250. When we drop the percent sign, we move the decimal 2 places to the left, giving .05. Then "of" means multiply. We take $1250 and multiply times .05, giving
<span>$62..50 </span>
<span>Another way to do it is to take 10%, or $125. </span>
<span>Then 5% is half of that. Half of $125 is $62.50 We can do that by dividing $125 by 2. I did it in my head. Others might do it on paper. Still others might have a calculator handy and say $125 divided by 2 on the calculator. We should all get the same answer unless one person spaces out or is tired. It happens!</span>

Answer:
x = 5.5
y = - 6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let one of the numbers = x
Let the other number = y
x + y = - 1
x = y + 12 Put the second equation into the first one
y + 12 + y = - 1 Subtract 12 from both sides
y + y = - 1 - 12 Combine both left and right sides
2y = - 13 Divide by 2
2y/2 = - 13/1
y = - 6.5
x + y = - 1
x - 6.5 = - 1 Add 6.5 to both sides
x = 5.5
