Question

on saturday a local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 416 hamburgers and cheeseburgers.the number of cheeseburgers sold was three times the number of hamburgers sold. how many hamburgers were sold?

Answer 1

Answer: Let x be the number of hamburgers sold.

Then, the number of cheeseburgers sold is 3x.

The total number of burgers sold is x + 3x = 4x.

Given that the total number of burgers sold is 416, we have:

4x = 416

x = 416/4

x = 104

Therefore, 104 hamburgers were sold.
