Answer:

The answer would be 3 pillows on each twin bed and 6 pillows on each queen bed.

Explanation:

first house:

3 pillows x 4 twin beds = 12 pillows

18 total pillows - 12 twin bed pillows = 6 queen bed pillows

Second house

6 queen bed pillows x 4 queen beds = 24 queen bed pillow

3 twin bed pillows x 4 twin beds = 12 twin bed pillows

24 queen bed pillow + 12 twin bed pillows = 36 total pillows
