Answer:
Paul had 5 sweets in the first place ( Now he has 15)
Step-by-step explanation:
p= Paul Sally = 5p
5p -10 = p+10
4p = 20
p = 5
Now Paul has 15 and Sally has 15 too
If sally has five times more sweets than paul and she gives paul ten, then she probably has 50 sweets, and if you divide 50 by 10 you get five. so Paul would have 5 candies in the first place. im not exactly sure but it’s an idea
