For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
 We have then:
 w: number of weeks.
 The equation for this problem is:
 14w + 7w = 126
 From here, we clear the value of w.
 We have then:
 21w = 126
 w = 126/21
 w = 6
 Answer:
 the number of weeks it took Mark and Mary to complete 126 projects is:
 w = 6
