    Ron has 22 cards

    number one tip in math, try to create equation!

    set number of cards Ron has as x (always set x as what you are looking for)

    set number of cards Tori has as (x-9) because if Ron has 9 more cards than Tori that's same thing as saying Tori has 9 cards less than Ron

    Number of cards Tori and Ron has need to equal 35

    Therefore,

    x + (x-9) = 35

    Solve:

    2x-9=35

    bring over 9 to other side

    2x=44

    divide both sides by 2

    x=22

    So number of cards Ron has is 22
