Separate combined jpeg and RAW files

I recently decided to use Photos and iCloud to manage and store my photos instead of DropBox. After importing all of my photos into Photos, I have some pairs of RAW and jpegs that appear as separate files and some that appear to be combined into a single file with a J or an R in the upper right hand corner. What I would like to know I can separate the combined files, especially if I want to delete one and keep the other, plus how to combine the separated ones.

Mac mini, macOS High Sierra (10.13.2)

As to the separated one - you can not, something is keeping Photos trom seeing them as a pair, could be date/time differeinces, file name differendcs, many things


as to separating the pair, there is no simple way but this user tip explains how to to it -- Deleting RAW files from RAW&JPEG pairs in Photos for Mac
