A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 632 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Monday. There were 68 fewer cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers. How many hamburgers were sold on Monday?

Respuesta :

The number of hamburgers sold on Monday is 350

How to determine the value

From the information given, we have that;

  • Total number of burgers sold on Monday was 632
  • Cheeseburgers were 68 fewer than hamburgers

Let the hamburgers be x

We then have;

x + x - 68 = 632

collect like terms

2x = 632 + 68

2x = 700

Make 'x' the subject

x = 700/ 2

x = 350

Thus, the number of hamburgers sold on Monday is 350
