let l = lance, and a = alex.
so: l + a = 70
and l = 4a
Putting the value for l in the first equation:
4a +a = 70
5a = 70
a = 14.
So Alex has 14 pencils. And Lance has (70-14) 56 pencils.
And if each child gets half of Alex' pencils, then each child will have 7 pencils.

Leeza can put 33 or less gallons of water in aquarium.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Capacity of aquarium = 55 gallons of water
Water already in aquarium = 22 gallons
Let,
x be the number of gallons that can be added in aquarium.
As aquarium can hold 55 gallons of water, therefore, we cannot add more than 55 gallons of water.
Subtracting 22 from both sides
Leeza can put 33 or less gallons of water in aquarium.
