Answer:

m = 5 and n = 6

Explanation:

In a parallelogram, opposite sides of the figure are congruent (equal to each other).

This means that 3m - 7 = m + 3 and 2n + 12 = 4n

We can now solve for the variables

3m - 7 = m + 3

==> add 7 to both sides

3m = m + 10

==> subtract 2 from both sides

2m = 10

==> divide both sides by 2

m = 5

2n + 12 = 4n

==> subtract 2n from both sides

12 = 2n

==> divide both sides by 2

6 = n
