Answer:   55 brushes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the number of art brushes Monique has.

Then, Number of brushes Chelsea has = 11x .

If they have 60 art brushes altogether, the we have the following equation :-

[tex]x+11x=60\\\\\Rightarrow\ 12x=60[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12 , we get

[tex]x=5[/tex]

Then, Number of brushes Monique has = 5

Number of brushes Chelsea has = 11(5)=55
