    Let the number of frogs in the Blue Pond be x

    Blue Pond = x

    There were 26 more frogs in Green Pond than in Blue Pond

    Green Pond = x + 26

    There were 80 frogs altogether

    x + x + 26 = 80

    2x + 26 = 80

    2x = 80 - 26

    2x = 54

    x = 27

    x + 26 = 27 + 26 = 53

    There were 53 frogs in the Green Pond originally.
