Question

A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 771 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Friday. There were 71 more cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers. How many hamburgers were sold on Friday?

Answer 1

350 Hamburgers where sold on Friday.

771 is you total. The cheeseburgers and the ham burgers would be the same but cheeseburgers sold 71 more times. So you would 771 - 71 = 700. Then take that a divide by two. 700 / 2 = 350. 350 Hamburgers where sold on Friday.
