Answer:
Look for the same entry in both (all) tables.
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume here that the system of equations consists of two equations in two variables. If there are more equations in more variables, the general approach is the same.
A "solution" to a system of equations is a set of variable values that satisfies all equations of the system simultaneously. A table for one equation will generally list sets of variable values that satisfy that equation. <em>When the same set of values appears in the table for each of the equations, then that set of values is the solution</em>.

<u>Example</u>
The attachment shows tables for two equations:
- y = 2x
- y = x+3
Highlighted are the table entries that are the same for both equations. This is the solution to the system of equations. (x, y) = (3, 6) satisfies both equations:
- 6 = 2·3
- 6 = 3+3
