This is because 402 (total) ÷ 3 = 134
Cheeseburgers: 268 (x2 134)
Hamburgers: 134
134 + 268 = 402
Sorry, it was hard to explain. I’m new to the app, but I hope this helps!

Answer:

134

Explanation:

2x +x =402

3x=402

x=134

2x=268

In this case x = hamburgers and 2x = cheeseburgers. And sense x = 134 that is your answer.
