The number of alarms sold by Don last week is 12 fewer than Chuck did and total number of alarms sold by Don and Chuck is 44.

Suppose that X be the number of alarms sold by Chuck.

Consider that alarm sold by Don last week is 12 fewer than Chuck did,

Therefore, alarm sold by Don last week is X−12

Also consider total number of alarms sold by Don and Chuck is 44, X+X−12=44

Now solve the equation X+X−12=44
