Question

One day in the school cafeteria the number of children who bought white milk was twice the number who bought chocolate milk how many cartons of each type of milk were sold if the cafeteria sold a total of 141 cartons of milk?

Answer 1

94 whit milk and 47 chocolate milks

Answer 2

well that's when you devise 141 / 3 which is 47

so since white milk got bought 2x as much as chocolate milk you add 47+47 which equals to 94.

There for white milk was sold 94 times while chocolate was sold 47 times.
