    We would start with this:

    123-32 = 91 because of the amount of single brushes

    Then we have 91 non-single brushes that are in the packages, and if there are 5 packages, then next we must divide.

    91:5 ≈18 packages with 32 single brushes

    5x+32=123

    5x=91

    x = 91/5 brushes
