What are system of equations?

These are made of several equation with unknown variables

Let the amount of stamp Sam be x

Let the amount of stamp Maggie be y

If Maggie has collected four times as many stamps as sam, hence;

y = 4x

If the total stamp is 210, hence;

x + y =210

x + 4x =210

5x = 210

x = 210/5

x = 42

Since y = 4x

y = 4(42)

y = 168

Therefore Sam collected 42 stamps and Maggie collected 168 stamps
