A+B=93
\n" ); document.write( "A=4B+8
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute the known value of A from the bottom equation into the top.
\n" ); document.write( "A+B=93
\n" ); document.write( "(4B+8)+B=93
\n" ); document.write( "5B+8=93
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 8 from each side
\n" ); document.write( "5B = 85
\n" ); document.write( "Divide each side by 5
\n" ); document.write( "B = 17
\n" ); document.write( "If person B has 17 coins, then person A has 93-17=76
\n" ); document.write( "76 is 4*17 (68) + 8
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
