The number of days for both Companies to have the same total amount is
6.4 days
<h3>Word Problem leading to Algebraic expression</h3>
Given Data
- Let the total payment be y
- Let the number of days be x
Company A
y = 57x+ 32 -----------------1
Company B
y = 62x + 0-----------------2
Equating 1 and 2 we have
57x+ 32 = 62x+ 0
Solving for x we have
62x-57x = 32
5x = 32
Divide both sides by 5
x = 32/5
x = 6.4 days
