Hi!

Theoretically we know that there needs to be a total of 34 muffins so that each student gets two.

So 34-5(already baked) gives us 29

X has to be 29

Algebraically you would solve it like this (x+5)/17= 2

the numerator equals to the 34 and you divide by the 17 to get the two muffins per student.

I hope this helped!
