Question

A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 635 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on saturday. there were 65 fewer cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers. how many hamburgers were sold on saturday?

Answer 1

x = number of hamburgers
x - 65 = number of cheeseburgers

x + x - 65 = 635
2x - 65 = 635
2x = 700
x = 350

350 hamburgers were sold on Saturday. Hope this helps!
