Answer:

76 hamburgers were sold

Explanation:

total sold: 228

ratio of cheeseburgers to hamburgers sold: 2:1

2+1=3 to find total of ratio

228÷3= 76 to find the value of 1 part in the ratio

because hamburgers sold was only 1 part, the answer is 76

Answer:

76

Explanation:

First, what we do is divide 228 by 6...

Our answer will be 38.

Then, we multiply 38 by 4 and get...

152.

Next, we subtract 152 from 228 and get...

76

Therefore, 76 hamburgers were sold on Monday.
