Two boxes of apples contain a total of 24 apples. If you halve the number of apples in the first box and add 4 apples to the second box, the total changes to 20 apples. How many apples are in each box initially? 12 and 12 18 and 6 16 and 8 10 and 14
the answer is 6 and 16. They each start off with 12 in each box, so if you halve the first box (6) then add four to the second one (16) that would be your answer. hope this helped, have an amazing day :)
