Problem - 1877
Jay and Mike were walking home with heavy books in their backpacks. When Mike complained about the weight in his backpack, Jay remarked, "If I take one of your books, I will be carrying twice as many books as you will be carrying, but if you take one of my books, we'll be carrying the same number of books." How many books is Mike carrying in his backpack?
