Bruno's Burgers has a cook to server ratio of 2:5. The total numbers of servers and cooks is 42. How many more servers does Bruno's Burgers employ than cooks?

Answer 1

If there are 2x cooks, there are 5x servers.

2x + 5x = 42

x = 6

So, number of cooks = 12, and servers = 30

There are 18 more servers than cooks.
