<span>Leah, Let x=Blair's fish and 2x= Jay's fish; yet together they caught 27 fish. So, x + 2x=27; Combine the like terms. So, 3x=27; Now divide both sides of the equation by 3, therefore, x=9 which is the amt of fish Blair caught. So, 2(9)=18 is the amt of fish Jay caught. Check: 9 +2(9)=27; 27=27.</span>
