14There were 95 more jumpsuits than windbreakers at first. If another 95 windbreakers were added at first, the number of windbreakers and jumpsuits would be the same.
4 u + 95 = 3 u + 81
4 u - 3 u = 81 - 95
1 u = -14
1 u = -14 ÷ 1 = -14
Number of windbreakers in the shop at first
= 4 u
= 4 x -14
= -56
Answer(s): -56
