We can solve this problem by setting up an equation. In the beginning, Xian and Kai has got respectively 56 and 80 stamps. Let's denote the number of the month, when they will have the same amount of cards with an x. Then after x months, Xian and Kai will respectively have 56 + 12x and 80 + 8x cards.

By setting up an equation, we can write that:

56 + 12x = 80 + 8x

4x = 24

x = 6

The correct answer is after six months they will have the same amount of cards. After 6 months, Xian and Kai will each have 128 cards.

After 6 months.
Difference in their original number of stamps: 80-56=24
Difference in the number of stamps they receive each month: 12-8=4
Number of months to have same number of stamps: 24/4=6

They will each have 6x12+56=128 stamps

zloy xaker [14]

In "The Minister's Black Veil" by Nathaniel Hawthorne, when the "deputation to the church" attempted to "deal with Mr. Hooper about the mystery of the veil" they did not take any action out of fear of him, as the minister states "Have men avoided me, and women shown no pity, and children screamed and fled, only for my black veil?" The deputation of the church did nothing and had claimed it was "pronouncing the matter too weighty to be handled".
