Answer 1

Answer:

he sold 122 brownies

198-76 = 122

122+76= 198

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. Of cookies sold = x

Browning sold = x + 76

Total sold = 198

x + x + 76 = 198

2x + 76 = 198

2x = 198 - 76

2x = 122

x = 122/2

x = 61

No. Of cookies sold = 61

No. Of browning sold = x + 76

= 61 + 76

= 137
