    64° and 116°

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Supplementary angles sum to 180°

    let one angle be x then the other is 2x - 12 (12 less than twice the other)

    Sum the 2 angles and equate to 180

    x + 2x - 12 = 180

    3x - 12 = 180 (add 12 to both sides)

    3x = 192 (divide both sides by 3)

    x = 64

    The 2 angles are x = 64° and 2x - 12 = (2 * 64) - 12 = 128 - 12 = 116°
