There are

  • 8 cards in every booster pack
  • 39 cards in every premade deck

Explanation:

This is a system of equations with the two equations

  • #203=p+5x#
  • #95=7p+x#

Solve for one of the variables, I would solve for #x# using the second equation

#95=7p+x#

#x=95-7p#

Then we can substitute #x# in the other equation to solve for #p#

#203=p+5(95-7p)#

#203=p+475-35p#

#-272=-34p#

#p=8#

Now we can substitute #p# in either equation to solve for #x#

#95=7(8)+x#

#x=39#
