Question

Mimi earned a total of $38 by selling 19

cups of lemonade. How many cups of
lemonade does Mimi need to sell in all to earn
$44?

Answer 1

22 cups in total

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to know how much money Mimi makes by just selling 1 cup of lemonade. We can find this by dividing

38/19 = 2

Now that we know how much money Mimi makes by just selling 1 cup of lemonade, we can use this to find how many cups she needs to sell in total to earn $44. We can use this equation

2x = 44 (x = cups of lemonade)

Now we solve for x

2x =44

/2 /2

x = 22

So Mimi needs to sell 22 cups in total to earn $44 dollars. Hope this helps :)
