Adela and Barbora have a total of 34 candies. If Barbora gives Adela 2 candies, they will have the same. How many candies does Adela have, and how many Barbora?

Correct answer:

a =  15
b =  19

Step-by-step explanation:


a+b=34
b-2=a+2

a+b = 34
a-b = -4

Row 2 - Row 1 → Row 2
a+b = 34
-2b = -38


b = -38/-2 = 19
a = 34-b = 34-19 = 15

a = 15
b = 19
