Based on the Census, state A has 21 fewer electoral votes for president than state B. If the total number of electoral votes for these two states is 85, find the number for each state

state A = 32 votes, state B = 53 votes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of electoral votes for state A be a and state B be b

a  = b - 21

a + b = 85

Substituting a for b - 21 in the second equation

2b - 21 = 85

2b = 106

b = 53

Plugging b back in

85 - 53 = 32
