The way how this post is written,  worded,  posted and presented,  places this problem into the category between two poles,


one of which is  "NONSENSE",  and the other is  "THERE  IS  NO  SOLUTION  with the given data.


Therefore,  instead of posting unnecessary instructions to the tutors on how to present the solution,  you'd better

There are x enrollees in the review program and (x+14) enrollees in the advancement program. The total cost of the programs, at 9665 each for the review program and 8000 each for the advancement program, is 818600:

9665%28x%29%2B8000%28x%2B14%29+=+818600
17665x+%2B+112000+=+818600
17665x+=+706600
x+=+40

The number of enrollees in the review program is x = 40; the number in the advancement program is (x+14) = 54.
