Let no. of pens be x.
Pens : x
Pencils: x+8
Total: 2x+8
Student takes 1 pen and 5 pencils.
Remainder: 2x+8 - 5 -1 = 2x+2
2x+2 = 26
2x= 24
x = 12 (original no. of pens)
x+ 8 = 20 (original no of pencils)
There are 12 pens at first and 20 pencils.
After 1 pen is taken, 11 pens are left.
After 5 pencils are taken, 20-5=15 pencils are left.

▹ Answer
<em>q = 16</em>
▹ Step-by-Step Explanation
3(q - 7) = 27
3q - 21 = 27
Add 21 to both sides:
21 + 21 = na
27 + 21 = 48
3q = 48
Divide both sides by 3:
3/3 = q
48/3 = 16
q = 16
Hope this helps!
