Jenny just went shoe shopping. Now she has 5 more pairs of shoes than her brother J + B = 25
\n" ); document.write( "J = B + 5
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute and solve for \"B\":
\n" ); document.write( "B+5 + B = 25
\n" ); document.write( "2B = 20
\n" ); document.write( "B = 10 (# of pairs her brother has)
\n" ); document.write( "J = B+5 = 15 (# Jenny has)
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "Cheers,
