    Let pages written by Tom for a school report = x

    Pages written by Jen for school report = 10 x

    Pages written by Tom + Pages written by Jen = 396

    → x + 10 x = 396

    → 11 x = 396

    Dividing both sides by 11, we get

    → x = 36,

    Pages wrote by Tom = 36 pages

    Pages wrote by Jen = 36 * 10=360 pages
