Felicia collects $1 for every car and $2 for every truck passes through the toll gate. If she collects $550, and 200 cars came through the gate, how many trucks came through the gate?

Answer:

The money she made with 200 cars is:
200 *1=200

The money she made with the trucks:
550-200=350

The number of trucks came through the gate:
350/2=175

So there were 175 trucks came through the gate.
