    Let the size of a large server be L, and

    the size of a small server be S.

    We are given two scenarios,

    2L+4S = 64 ... (1)

    and

    L+3S = 40 ... (2)

    We solve the equations as follows

    2 (2) - (1)

    2L-2L + 6S-4S = 2*40-64

    2S = 16

    so S=8 ... (3), size of small server

    substitute (3) in (2)

    L+3 (8) = 40

    L = 40-24 = 16 ... size of large server
