    75 chairs

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1. 9x+3 : write equation

    2. 7x+19 : write equation

    3. 9x+3=7x+19 : make both equations equal to each other

    4. 2x+3=19 : subtract 7x from both sides

    5. 2x=16 : subtract 3 from both sides

    6. 8 : divide 2 on both sides of the equal sign

    7. 9 (8) + 3=75 : plug 8 into the equation
