    X + y = 304,250

    x = y + 51,000

    Plug in (y+51,000) for x into the first equation

    y+51,000+y = 304,250

    Subtract 51,000 from both sides.

    2y = 253,250

    y = 126,625

    Plug y into second equation

    x = 126,625 + 51,000

    x = 177,625

    Person A : 177,625

    Person B : 126,625
