Many problems involving quantities and relationships between them can be described through algebraic equations, for this it is necessary to look at the described problem and the mathematical relationship involved (sum, equality, multiplication, etc.).

For this case we must postulate the two equations described, Webauctions and the costs of AuctionsOnline , and match them based on the final sale price , and then clear it:

To determine the quantity, the value must be replaced in one of the equations
