Hilda: Professors. Do we have to?

M Byleth: If you don't want to be put on rebuilding duty, yes.

F Byleth: And I expect everyone here to give an actual attempt at answering the question. Time starts now.

Yuri: looking at the question The amount of gold stolen from a house is worth 50g and a mansion is worth 150g. During a two-month window a total of 234 houses and mansions were robbed totaling 21,700 in stolen gold. Solving the following equation, determine the number of houses x, and the number of mansions y that were robbed. Heh. Simple.

Yuri: I haven't started yet. And pay attention to your own paper.

Balthus: Ok, fine. But don't expect me to not peek over your shoulder for the answer.

Dimitri: What kind of question is this? How is one even able to decipher this?
