Answer:

Joe's done expressed sold 1211 Vanilla donuts.

Explanation:

Given:

Total Money earned = 4378

Number of chocolate donuts sold = 978

Cost of each donuts = 2 dollars

We need to find the number of vanilla donuts sold.

Solution:

Let number of vanilla donuts sold be 'x'.

now we can say that;

Total Money earned is equal to sum of Number of chocolate donuts sold and number of vanilla donuts sold multiplied by Cost of each donuts.

framing in equation form we get;


2(x+978)=4378\\\\2x +2* 978 =4378\\\\2x+1956=4378

Subtracting both side by 1956 we get;


2x-+1956-1956=4378-1956\\\\2x= 2422

Dividing both side by 2 we get;


(2x)/(2)=(2422)/(2)\\\\x = 1211

Hence Joe's done expressed sold 1211 Vanilla donuts.
