Answer:

82

Step-by-step explanation:

L - number of pages of Lisa's notebook

3L + 14 - number of pages of Samantha's notebook

260 - number of pages of Samantha's notebook

The equation:

3L + 14 = 260          subtract 14 from both sidesi

3L + 14 - 14 = 260 - 14

3L = 246     divide both sides by 3

3L/3 = 246/3

L = 82
