Answer:

Jamie has 44 pairs of shoes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Jamie= x pairs of shoes

Suzie= 33 less than twice the amount of shoes Jamie has

2x - 33 = 55

Solve:

2x - 33 = 55

Collect like terms

2x = 55 + 33

2x = 88

Divide both sides by 2

2x / 2 = 88 / 2

x = 44

Jamie = x = 44 pairs of shoes

Therefore, Jamie has 44 pairs of shoes

so have start with 5 + 6 + 7 = 18 are the 3 sides.
