You can put this solution on YOUR website!
G+(G+32)=126
2G=126-32
2G=94
G=94/2
G=47 DOGS TRAINES.
Z=47+32=79 DOGS TRAINED BY ZINA.
PROOF:
47+79=126
126=126

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
126-32= 94
94 divided by 2 = 47
47 + 32 = 79
Gary trained 79 dogs.
To check, do subtraction:
79 - 32= 47
and addition:
79 + 47= 126
