x= small frames

y = large frames

6x+15y = 114

x+y = 13

solve for x

x=13-y

substitute into 6x+15y = 114

6(13-y) +15y = 114

distribute

78 -6y +15y =  114

combine like terms

78 +9y = 114

subtract 78 from each side

9y = 36

divide by 9

y =4

x = 13-y

x = 13-y

x=9

Answer: 9 small frames and 4 large frames
