Josh has x twix bars and kevin has six more than josh if they have 22 bars of twix in total how many bars does each boy have

Step-by-step explanation:

We have simultaneous equations.

Let's say Kevin has y twix bars.

(1) y = x + 6

(2) x + y = 22

Substitute (1) for y in (2) gives us:

x + (x + 6) = 22

2x +6 = 22

2x = 16

x = 8

Substitute this value for x in (1) gives:

y = 8 + 6 = 14

So Josh has 8 bars and Kevin has 14 bars.
