    Suppose, number of sunshine days in Boston, Massachusetts is: x

    Then, number of sunshine days in Colorado Spring, Colorado will be: 1.4 x

    Given that, total number of days of sunshine for both city is: 475

    That is, x+1.4x = 475

    Solving for x,

    x=198

    1.4x = 277

    Therefore,

    Number of sunshine days in Boston, Massachusetts is 198

    and

    Number of sunshine days in Colorado Spring, Colorado is 277
