Hi there! :)
We can solve by setting both equations equal to the same variable.
We are given that M + A = 68 and M = A + 24. The easiest variable to set both equal to would be M.
Rearrange the first equation by subtracting A from both sides:
M = -A + 68
Now that both equations equal to M, we can set the two equal to each other:
-A + 68 = A + 24
Add A to both sides:
68 = 2A + 24
Subtract 24 from both sides:
44 = 2A
Divide both sides by 2:
A = 22.
Plug this back into an equation to solve for M:
M + 22 = 68
M = 68 - 22
M = 46.
