    The answer is (5, 100)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let us make an equation for each one

    ∵ Mahmoud has $50

    ∵ He gets $10 per month

    ∵ Estiny has $350

    ∵ She spends $50 per month

    - Assume that they will have the same amount of money in x months

    ∴ Mahmoud's amount = 50 + 10 x

    ∴ Estiny's amount = 350 - 50 x

    Equate the two amounts of money

    ∵ 50 + 10 x = 350 - 50 x

    - Add 50 x to both sides

    ∴ 50 + 60 x = 350

    - Subtract 50 from both sides

    ∴ 60 x = 300

    - Divide both sides by 60

    ∴ x = 5

    ∴ They will have the same amount of money after 5 months

    Substitute x by 5 in any amount of them to find it

    ∵ Mahmoud's amount = 50 + 10 (5)

    ∴ Mahmoud's amount = 50 + 50

    ∴ Mahmoud's amount = 100 dollars

    ∴ They will have $100 after 5 months
