That is , Josh has 29 coins.

Answer 2

Josh has 29 coins.

Explanation:

Let Terry have x coins then Josh has x + 12 coins.

Together they have x + x + 12 coins so we can form the equation:

x + x + 12 = 46

2x + 12 = 46

2x = 46 - 12 = 34

x = 17, so Terry has 17 coins and Josh has 17 + 12 = 29 coins.
