The given attendence fees for preschool A is a=$5.00/day.

The given attendence fees for preschool B is b=$7.50/day.

The total fees for school A is,

`S_A=40+5x`

The total fees for school B is,

`S_B=7.5x`

The cost of both preschool is same.

`\begin{gathered} (40+5x)=7.5x \\ 40=2.5x \\ x=16 \end{gathered}`
