Let's set up the equation to solve this problem.
23 + 4m = 9 + 6m
Simplify the equation by combining like terms:
14 = 2m
Divide both sides of the equation by 2:
7 = m
The solution is 7 months. Therefore, after 7 months, Bradley and Ryan will have the same number of bumper stickers.
Bradley and Ryan are having a contest to see who can collect the most bumper stickers. Bradley started with 23 bumper stickers and plans to add 4 each month. Ryan has 9 bumper stickers and plans to add 6 each month. After how many months will they have the same number of bumper stickers?
