Question

Ashley had a summer lemonade stand where she sold small cups of lemonade for $1.25 and large cups for $2.50. If Ashley sold total of 155 cups of lemonade for $265, How many cups of each type did she sell?

Answer 1

Large cups $2.50
Small cups $1.25
Total cost for 1 cup each is $3.75 ($2.50+$1.25=$3.75)

She made $265
Total cups sold 155

$256 divided by $3.75 = 68.2 / 2 = 34.1
