A second number is six more than half on the first number. The sum of the two numbers is 42. What are the 2 numbers?

I have already done the formula
S=6 + .5F
but I can't figure it out from there. Thankyou!

One number is f and the other should .5f+6
They need to have the same variable

SO then the equation is f= .5f+6. I think now you can solve it. Let me know i you need more help
