To solve this we can make it into an equation, which looks like this

y = 2x (for Rebecca)
y = x + 10 (for Alice)

The we subtract one equation from the other to solve

0 = x - 10
10 = x
x = 10

Now we replace x in whichever equation and we get 20

So, each girl will read 20 books for them to be at the same book.

Hope this helps, remember that Jesus loves you
