    Simultaneous equations:

    Makes the 2 equations, solving for A and B.

    Let A = Model A and B = Model B

    A + B = 14

    70A + 55B = 905

    70A + 70B = 980

    70A = 980 - 70B - rearrange and substitute

    980 - 70B + 55B = 905

    980 - 15B = 905

    -15B = - 75

    15B=75

    B=5

    There are 5 Model B's. So that means there must be 9 Model A's.
