On a given day, Jace made a total of $102 in commission from all accessory and phone sales and he sold twice as many accessories as phones.

Let the number of phones sold =P

The number of accessories sold=2P

 

11P  +  3(2P) = 102

11P  +  6P = 102

17P = 102

P = 102 / 17 =6 - number of phones sold

2 x 6 = 12 - accessories sold.
