Answer:

15,12

Step-by-step explanation:

Guess and check all the numbers that add up, or divide as close to two as possible(this is quicker):

13,14 :this is a little off, so lets go one more:

12, 15: 15-12=3

15+12=27

Hope this helps u

Pls give thx (and brainliest want to level up) if right

If wrong pls leave a comment

1st place = 15

2nd place = 12

2nd place = x

X= (27-3)/2

X= 24/2

X = 12

1st place = y

y = 27-12

y = 15
