Mushrooms

Eva and Jane collected 114 mushrooms together. Eve found twice as much as Jane. How many mushrooms were found in each of them?

Correct answer:

x =  76
y =  38

Step-by-step explanation:


x+y=114
x = 2y

x+y=114
x = 2·y

x+y = 114
x-2y = 0

Row 2 - Row 1 → Row 2
x+y = 114
-3y = -114


y = -114/-3 = 38
x = 114-y = 114-38 = 76

x = 76
y = 38
