Let x = amount that sister #1 saved and y = amount that sister #2 saved. Now let's say that sister #2 made 25 more than sister #1. This then means that \"y=x%2B25\". In addition, because \"two sisters save $180\" (ie their savings combine to $180), we also know that \"x%2By=180\" \n" ); document.write( "
