Last week in the restaurant sold 16 orders of the single Mucho variety and 22 orders of the double Mucho. If the restaurant sold $231 Worth of beef burritos last weekend and the single neutral kind cost $1 Less than the double Mucho how much did each type of burrito cost?

Answer 1

Explanation:

16+22=38

So then youll check out the price thats worth each. 231$ So what is 38 divided by 231$? Thats your answer

Answer 2

The cost of single and double mucho are $5.5 and $6.5 respectively.

Let:

• cost of double mucho = d
• single mucho = d - 1

Creating the equation which represents the scenario:

16(d - 1) + 22d = 231

16d - 16 + 22d = 231

38d - 16 = 231

38d = 231 + 16

38d = 247

d = 247/38

d = 6.5

Cost of Single mucho :

d - 1

6.5 - 1

= 5.5

The cost of single and double mucho are $5.5 and $6.5 respectively.
