Answer:

215 hamburgers

Explanation:

First, you need to find out what 570 divided by 2 is. It's 285 (570/2=285)

Next, you need to add 70 to 285. It's 355 (285+70=355)

Lastly, you need to subtract 355 from 570. It's 215 (570-355=215)

Thus, the were 215 hamburgers sold on Monday.

Hope this is right and helps!

Answer:

250 hamburgers were sold on monday.

Explanation:

were going to subtract 70 from 500 leaving us with 500 and then divide it by 2 (hamburger and cheeseburger). so we have 250 now. then were going to add 70 to 250 and we'd get 320. so there were 320 cheeseburgers sold on monday and 250 hamburgers sold on monday. to check our work, 250+320=570. 570-320=250.
