Look, I don't want to leave. But if this keeps going on, I am. Just like Rom

Bricklayer Ben placed a total of 462 bricks.

How to use equation to find the number of bricks placed?

Bricklayer Ben places 42 bricks per hour.

Bricklayer Bob places 36 bricks per hour.

Let

x = number of hours worked by Bricklayer Bob

y = number of hours worked  by Bricklayer Ben

Therefore,

x = 2y

42y + 36x = 1254

42y + 36(2y) = 1254

42y + 72y = 1254

114y = 1254

y = 1254 / 114

y = 11

Hence,  Bricklayer Ben placed a total of 42 × 11 = 462 bricks.

OOOH. What a hard question. I think you need to use your fingers and count

 Is it that I'm blind or that there is nothing shown

OBVIOUSLY I CAN'T ANSWER IF THERE IS NO QUESTION

That's after everyone posted it...
