Question

Tim's Tacos sell 57 chicken tacos a night and 89 beef tacos a night for 3 weeks. How many of each kind of taco do they sell when the three weeks are up?

Answer 1

see the explanation

Explanation:

Remember that

`1\ week=7\ days`

To convert weeks to days , multiply by 7

so

`3\ weeks=3(7)=21\ days`

we know that

Each night Tim's Tacos sell 57 chicken tacos and 89 beef tacos

To find out how many of each type of taco sold after three weeks, multiply the number of taco sold daily by 21 (3 weeks)

Chicken tacos

`57(21)= 1,197\ chicken\ tacos`

Beef tacos

`89(21)= 1,869\ beef\ tacos`
