S = small rooms

L = large rooms

Hudson booked a total of 19 means:

S + L = 19

Which can accommodate 87 guests altogether means:

Small rooms can accommodate 3 people

Large rooms can accommodate 6 people

so

3 S + 6 L = 87

Your system is:

S + L = 19

3 S + 6 L = 87
___________

The solution is:

S = 9 , L = 10
