    C=carol

    t=tom

    carol sold 1/4 of tom

    c=1/4t

    c=t/4

    together they sold 35

    c+t=35

    subsitute t/4 for c

    t/4+t=35

    multiply both sides by 4

    t+4t=140

    5t=140

    divide both sides by 5

    t=28

    sub back

    c=t/4

    c=28/4

    c=7

    carol sold 7

    tom sold 28
