Q1 :
x + (x+25) = 131
2x + 25 = 131
2x = 131-25
2x = 106
x = 53
53+25 = 78
Therefore, 53+78=131

Q2 :
x + (x+14) = 58
2x + 14 = 58
2x = 58-14
2x = 44
x = 22
22+14 = 36
Therefore, 22+36=58

Q3 :
let ‘b’ be basketball
b + (3+b) = 27
2b + 3 = 27
2b = 27-3
2b = 24
b = 12
12 + 3 = 15
Therefore, 12 + 15 = 27
12 basketballs and 15 footballs were sold on Saturday

Q4 :
let ‘s’ be soup
s + 2s = 738
3s = 738
s = 246
246 x 2 = 492
Therefore, the hamburger has 492 calories while the soup as 246 calories

hope it helps somehow!
