Answer:
In 4 months, they will both have 132 stamps.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = # of months
52 + 20x = 68 + 16x
4x = 16
x = 4
Plug x value into both expressions and see if it checks out
52 + 20(4) = 68 + 16(4)
52 + 80 = 68 + 64
132 = 132
1.) Group like terms: 4x+3x-5x+5x+5x-3x+2x-8x+2x-5x-5+7
2.) Add similar elements: = 4x+3x-5x+5x+5x-3x+2x-8x+2x-5x=0
3.) =-5+7
4.) Add/Subtract the numbers: -5 + 7 = 2
