Question

In the first week of June, a restaurant sold 10,345 omelets. In the second week, 1,096 fewer omelets were sold than in the first week. In the third week, 2 thousand more omelets were sold than in the first week. In the fourth week, 2 thousand fewer omelets were sold than in the first week. How many omelets were sold in all in June? *

Answer 1

40, 284 omelets

Explanation:

Given that:

In the first week of June = 10345 omelets were sold

In the second week = 1096 fewer omelets are sold than in week one

i.e. 10345 - 1096 = 9249 omelets

In the third week = 2000 more were sold than week one.

i.e. 2000 + 10345 = 12345 omelets

In the fourth week = 2000 fewer omelets were sold than week one.

i.e. 10345 - 2000 = 8345 omelets

Thus, the total quantity of Omelet sold in the month of June is:

= (10345 + 9249 + 12345 + 8345) omelets

= 40, 284 omelets
