Answer:

<em>Zeina had 35 books and Ali had 5 books</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

We know Zeina has seven times as many books as Ali. If we call

x = Number of books Ali has

Then Zeina has

7x = Number of books Zeina has

We also know if Zeina gave Ali 15 books, they would have the same number of books, thus:

x + 15 = 7x - 15

Adding 15:

x + 15 +15 = 7x

Subtracting x:

15 +15 = 7x - x

Operating:

30 = 6x

Dividing by 6:

x = 30 / 6

x =5

7x = 35

Thus Zeina had 35 books and Ali had 5 books
