20m + 25n = 1275
\n" ); document.write( "m + n = 55\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-20m - 20n = -1100
\n" ); document.write( "20m + 25n = 1275\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5n = 175
\n" ); document.write( "n = 35\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Second Storm is 20 per hour
\n" ); document.write( "First Storm is 35 per hour\r
