The number of years t, the number of students in both high schools would be the same is 15 years

Equation

let

  • Number of years both high schools would be the same = t

School A:

1000 + 35t

School B:

700 + 55t

  • Equate both schools

1000 + 35t = 700 + 55t

1000 - 700 = 55t - 35t

300 = 20t

t = 300/20

t = 15 years

Therefore, the number of years t, the number of students in both high schools would be the same is 15 years
