Using the equation g = 26 + h, we can substitute g = 53 (the number of barrettes Gina has) to find h (the number of barrettes Holly has).
53 = 26 + h
h = 53 - 26
h = 27
Therefore, Holly has 27 barrettes.
Gina has 26 more barrettes than Holly.
The equation g = 26 + h, where g represents the number of barrettes Gina has, and h represents the number of barrettes Holly has, shows this relationship.
If Gina has 53 barrettes, how many barrettes does Holly have?
