Question

at a hockey game the snack bar sells nachos 2 dollars and pretzels for 3 dollars. The snack bar sold 49 nachos and pretzels all together for $137 dollars

Answer 1

The total number of nachos sold:49

The total number of pretzels sold:13

Explanation:

The numbers of nachos is 49. Each nacho costs 2 dollars.

2 x 49 = 98

Then you subtract that amount to get the amount of money left for pretzels.

137 - 98 = 39

Then you divide 39 by 3 since that's the cost of each pretzel.

39 ÷ 3 = 13

13 is the amount of pretzels you can buy after you buy 49 nachos.
