    Mark has 24

    Don has 79

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x = marbles mark has

    don has 3x+7

    Together they have 103

    mark + don = 103

    x + (3x+7) = 103

    Combine like terms

    4x+7 = 103

    Subtract 7

    4x = 96

    Divide by 4

    x = 96/4

    x = 24

    Mark has 24

    Don has 103 - 24

    Done has 79
