37 shares of Google, 21 shares of Nintendo

Google (g) at 596 per share Nintendo (n) at 30 per share 16 more shares of Google than Nintendo, total value 22682 $596g+30n=22682$ $g=16+n$ $596g+30n=22682$ $596*(16+n)+30n=22682$ $9536+596n+30n=22682$ $626n = 13146$ $626n/626 = 13146/626$ $n=21$ $g=16+n$ $g=16+21$ $g=37$
