Let be ''x'' the number of cans of soup purchased and ''y'' the number of frozen dinners purchased.

By reading the question we can write the following linear equation system :

(I)

(II)

Working with the equation (I) we find that (III)

If we replace (III) in (II) :

We find that Owen bought cans of frozen dinners.

If we replace the value of ''y'' in (I) :

We find that Owen bought cans of soup.
