Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Toyota = Honda + 81000      Honda needs 81000 more vehicles to catch Toyota

Toyota + Honda = 865000

Put Toyota from the first equation, into the second equation.

Honda + 81000 + honda = 865000              Subtract 81000 from both sides

             -81000                     -81000

Honda + Honda =                 784000            Combine

2 Honda = 784000                                        Divide both sides by 2

/2                /2

Honda = 392000

Honda + Toyota = 865000

392000 + Toyota = 865000                         Subtract 392000 each side

-392000               = -392000

                Toyota = 473000
