Default Re: Please help:Using the same word as an adjective and noun in a sentence

You could remove it, or you could say 'origanls of both'. Have there been a number of invoices? the use of the adjective suggests this. If not, then remove it freely. However, if there are two or more invoices, then it does add important information, so keep it or use 'first' and then add 'both',
