Question

At a baseball game, a vender sold a combined total of 114 sodas and hot dogs. The number of hot dogs sold was 30 less than the number of sodas sold. Find the number of sodas sold and the number of hot dogs sold.

Answer 1

Sodas: 72

Hotdogs: 42

Step-by-step explanation: First you take 114 and subtract 30 from it since there are 30 more sodas. You then would take the remaining 84, and divide it between the two giving you 42 hotdogs and 42 sodas. Now remember the 30 we had? Youre gonna add that to the 42, giving you 72 sodas and 42 hotdogs.
