Stan's steak house employs 30 servers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Ratio of servers to cook = 5:2

Total numbers of server and cooks = 42

Let,

x be the original number.

Therefore,

Number of servers = 5x

Number of cooks = 2x

[tex]5x+2x=42\\7x=42[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 7

[tex]\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{42}{7}\\x=6[/tex]

Number of servers = 5x = 5(6) = 30

Stan's steak house employs 30 servers.
