Latrice and Megan are collecting coins. Latrice doubled her coins collection the first month, and then added 200 coins to her collection the second month. Meagan added 85 coins to her collection the first week, and then doubled her total the second week. Now Latrice and Meagan have the same number of coins. Did they begin with the same number of coins?

    The answer is no. They didn't start with the same number.

    Latrice has 2x + 200 and Meagan has 2x + 170. These equations are not the same, so they didn't start with the same number of coins.
