14There were 98 more windbreakers than jumpsuits at first. If another 98 jumpsuits were added at first, the number of jumpsuits and windbreakers would be the same.
4 u + 98 = 3 u + 66
4 u - 3 u = 66 - 98
1 u = -32
1 u = -32 ÷ 1 = -32
Number of jumpsuits in the shop at first
= 4 u
= 4 x -32
= -128
Answer(s): -128
