The answer is C because you start out with 80 steaks and as you go through the days, subtract 7 each time.

Answer:

C. Friday 52, Saturday 45

Explanation:

Mr. Johnson owns a restaurant. On Monday morning, his restaurant has 80 steaks in the walk-in cooler.

Each day 7 customers order a steak dinner.

So, from Monday to Thursday, that is 4 days ;
7*4=28 steaks were used.

So, when the restaurant opened on Friday, it had
80-28=52 steaks
.

And 7 were used on Friday also so remaining were =
52-7=45

Hence, on Saturday there were 45 steaks.
