The frosty ice cream shop sells sundaes for $2 and banana splits for $3. On a hot day the shoot sold 8 more sundaes than banana splits and made $156

Let’s designate the number of banana splits sold as x. That means the number of sundaes sold is x + 8.

Now if we put this into an equation, also keeping in mind their costs, we get:
3(x) + 2(x + 8) = 156

Now to solve for x:
3x + 2(x + 8) = 156
3x + 2x + 16 = 156
5x = 140
x = 28

That means you’ve sold 28 banana splits and 36 sundaes! :)
