How do you draw the model and the number equations for this question: Kelly has 5 times as many stickers as Meiling. They have 300 stickers altogether. How many stickers does Kelly have? Pls help! Thnx

K = 5 M

K + M = 300

substitution is probably the best solution method
Meiling has X stickers.
Kelly has 5x stickers.

x + 5x = 300.
