Vong grilled 21 burgers at a block party. He grilled the same number of pounds of turkey burgers as hamburgers. Each turkey burger weighed 1/4 pound and each hamburger weighed 1/3 pound. How many of each did Vong grill?

t+b = 21 - counting burgers
1/4 t = 1/3 b - weighing burgers

t=12
b=9
How does it equal 12 and 9
