63 juice boxes are sold on Friday.

Explanation-
7 + 3= 10 (the 7 represents the milk cartons and the 3 represents the juice boxes). Since 210 drinks are sold that means you must divide 210 by 10 (since 10 is the total), when you divide 210 by 10 you get 63. So in conclusion the answer is 63.

Answer: 63 Juice boxes

Step-by-step explanation: So you know that 7(cartons of milk)+3(juice boxes)= 10 so you divide 210 by 10 and you get 21. 21x3 is 63 so 63 juice boxes are sold. To check the answer i did 21x7 and i got 147. 147+63=210

63 juice boxes and 147 cartons of milk are sold.
