    s + h = 1070 (total number of downloads)

    Rewrite as s = 1070 - h

    2.9s + 4.4h = 4393 (total download size)

    Substitute:

    2.9 (1070-h) + 4.4h = 4393

    Simplify:

    3103 - 2.9h + 4.4h = 4393

    Combine like terms:

    3103 + 1.5h = 4393

    Subtract 3103 from each side:

    1.5h = 1290

    Divide both sides by 1.5:

    h = 1290 / 1.5

    h = 860

    Replace h with 860 in first equation to solve for s:

    s + 860 = 1070

    s = 1070 - 860

    s = 210

    There were 210 standard downloads and 860 high quality downloads
