Suppose, instead, that bruce used 6 full boxes of tiles plus an additional 2 tiles, and felicia used 5 full boxes of tiles plus an additional 17 tiles.

if they each used the same number of tiles, how many tiles were in each box?

there were 15 tiles in each box

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of tiles in each full box be x

Suppose, instead, that Bruce used 6 full boxes of tiles plus an additional 2 tiles. It means that he used a total of

(6x + 2) tiles

Suppose, that Felicia used 5 full boxes of tiles plus an additional 17 tiles. It means that he used a total of

(5x + 2) tiles.

If they each used the same number of tiles, it means that the total number of tiles used by Bruce = total number of tiles used by Felicia. Therefore,

6x + 2 = 5x + 17

6x - 5x = 17 - 2

x = 15

The answer is 15.

x
