Question

You are ordering softballs for two softball leagues. The Elementary League uses a

larger softball priced at $2.75 each. The Middle School league uses a smaller softball
prices at $3.25 each. You order a total of 80 softballs for $245. What equations
would you use to find out how many of each size of softball you can order. Let L =
the larger softball and let S = the smaller softball.

Answer 1

Answer:L=30 S=50

Explanation:

3.25 x 50 = 162.5

245 - 162.5 = 82.5

82.5 divided by 30 equals 2.75.
