Question

Cody and Jordan were selling Flamin' Hot Cheetos to raise money for the Tornados. Cody sold 5 bags of Cheetos for every 3 bags Jordan sold. Together they sold 160 bags total. How many bags did each boy sell?

Answer 1

cody sold 100 & jordan sold 60

Answer 2

They sold 160 and for each 5 bags sold by one 3 bags are sold by another 3+5=8.

160/8=20.

Now Since Cody Sold 5 Bags for every 3 bags for Jordan

5x20=100

3x20=60

Cody Sold 100 and Jordan Sold 60
