Answer:

84 hamburgers!

(and 252 cheeseburgers -optional-)

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the following equations based on the problem:

H+C=336 <-- "combined total of 336"

C=3H <-- "the no. of Cheeseburgers sold was three times the no. of hamburgers"

1) Substitute 3H as C in the 1st equation:

H+3H=336

2) Combine alike terms:

4H=336

3) Divide both sides by 4:

H=84
