Question

A restaurant starts with 10 dozen

pieces of cornbread. Every order
receives 2 piece of cornbread. At the
end of their lunch rush, there are 28
pieces of cornbread left. How many
orders did the restaurant take?

Answer 1

46 orders.

Explanation:

(10*12) - 2x = 28

120 - 2x = 28

-2x = 28 - 120

-2x = -92

x = -92/2

x = 46
