Steven sold two less boxes of candy for the school fundraiser than rodney with some of the boxes they sold with 8 how many boxes did each cell

If Steven sold two boxes of candy less than Rodney and they sold 8 boxes, you can calculate how many boxes did each sell using the following steps:

Steven ... s = r - 2
Rodney ... r

s + r = 8
r - 2 + r = 8
2 * r = 8 + 2
2 * r = 10    /2
r = 5

s = r - 2 = 5 - 2 = 3

Result: Steven sold 3 boxes of candy and Rodney sold 5 boxes of candy.
