Let x be the number of holes the chipmunk dug and y be the number of seeds it stored. Let z be the number of holes the rabbit dug and y be the number of seeds it stored. Since the rabbit needed 5 fewer holes, z = x - 5. Since the chipmunk and the rabbit stored the same number of seeds, z = y. The chipmunk stored a total of 5x seeds and the rabbit stored a total of 7z seeds. Since they stored the same number of seeds, 5x = 7z. Substitute z = x - 5 into the equation and solve for y.
