Mauricio hits a baseball 4 times as often as Tony each game. He also hits 20 baseballs every Monday at practice. Tony hits 4 balls at the game Saturday. Write and solve an equation to find the number of baseballs Mauricio hit this week

Tony will be x because they are comparing Mauricio to Tony so 4x+20 so then we know x=4 because it says Tony’s hits 4 balls on Saturday so 4x4+20 = 16+20= 36 balls hit by Mauricia
