Question

A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 387 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Thursday. There were 63 fewer cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers. How many hamburgers were sold on Thursday?

Answer 1

Answer:

350 hamburgers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of hamburgers sold

Let x - 53 = the number of cheeseburgers sold

x + x - 53 = 647

2x = 700

x = 350 hamburgers
