Answer:

4 + (1/3)w + w = 24

subtract 4 from both sides

(1/3)w + w = 20

multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction

w + 3w = 60

4w = 60

Divide both sides by 4

w = 15

W= 15, like it says. So now you fill in the equation for Tuesday. 1/3 of 15 is 5. Then you add Monday and Tuesday, which is 9. Then you subtract that from 24, which is 15.
