Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Pieces of gum given by Sophia = x

Pieces of gum left with Sophia after giving x pieces = 25 - x

Pieces of gum given by Maria = 2 × Gums given by Sophia = 2x

Pieces of gum left with Maria after giving 2x pieces = 75 - 2x

Pieces of gum left with Sophia = Pieces of gum left with Maria

25 - x = 75 - 2x

2x - x = 75 - 25

x = 50

Pieces of gum left with Sophia is 50.
