There are two piles of coal. There are 20 tons of coal in pile a and 17.5 tons of coal in pile B. 2 tons of coal in pile a and 1.5 tons of coal in pile B are used every day. How many days The remaining equality equation solution of the last two piles of coal

There are two piles of coal. There are 20 tons of coal in pile a and 17.5 tons of coal in pile B. 2 tons of coal in pile a and 1.5 tons of coal in pile B are used every day. How many days The remaining equality equation solution of the last two piles of coal

Let X be equal to the rest of the two piles of coal
20-2x=17.5-1.5x
0.5x=2.5
x=5
A: five days later, the remaining coal of the two piles is equal
