A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 511 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Wednesday. There were 61 more cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers. How many were sold on Wednesday

Respuesta :

Answer:

286

Step-by-step explanation:

511/2= 255 each +1 remainder

255-30 = 225 hamburgers

255+30+1 = 286 cheeseburgers

Answer:

Hamburgers : 225

Cheeseburgers : 286

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hamburgers and y be the number of cheseburgers

Hamburgers:  x

Chesseburgers ( sold more than hamburgers 61) : y = (x + 61)

We have the equation: x + y = 511

                                      x + (x + 61) = 511

                                      2x + 61 = 511

                                      2x = 450

                                         x = 225

                       

                                      y = (x + 61)

                                      y = 225 + 61

                                      y =286
