Answer:

14 texts

Explanation:

Let x be the number of texts you send per day and y the number of texts the sister sends per day. The x and y adds to the total number of texts sent by both of them per day.

Build equation:

  • x + y = 26

now given you send 12 texts per day:

12 + y = 26

y = 26 - 12

y = 14

So she sends 14 texts per day.
