In order to solve this problem, we transform the statements into
algebraic expressions. First, we assign the variables.
Let:
x = Gina’s number
y = Sara’s number
For the first equation, we show that Gina’s number is greater
than Sara’s number by 2. For the second equation, we show that the sum of both
numbers is 68.
<span>(1)
</span>x – y = 2
<span>(2)
</span>x + y = 68
<span>We
add the two expressions, which result in the expression: 2x = 70. Then we
divide 70 by 2 to get the value of x. We then have x = 35. Using the second
equation, we solve for y = 68-35. This gives y = 33. To summarize, Gina’s
number is 35 while Sara’s number is 33.</span>

Please let me know if you want me to add an explanation as to why this is the answer. I can definitely do that, I just wouldn’t want to write it if you don’t want me to :)
6 less than 2 and a number.
The word "times" means you have to multiply.
2 1/5 times 1 3/4 is 3 17/20.
The phrase "how many more" means you have to subtract.
3 17/20 minus 2 1/5 is 1 13/20.
Carson walked her dog 1 13/20 more miles than Claire did.
Sorry for the lazy explanations Imao
