Answer 1

250 hamburgers and 315 cheeseburgers

Explanation:

565-65=500

then u divide 500 by 2 which =250 hamburgers sold then you add 65 to get the cheeseburgers

Answer 2

250

Explanation:

I have an easy way of doing this that works for me. Since there are 65 more cheeseburgers, you can subtract 65 from the total number, which leaves you with 500. Then, you just divide that number by 2 and your quotient (250) is the number of hamburgers.
