There were 97 hamburgers sold on Thursday
Step-by-step explanation:
The given is:
We need to find how many hamburgers were sold on Thursday
Assume that the number of hamburgers was sold is x
∵ The number of hamburgers sold is x
∵ The number of cheeseburgers sold was three times the number
of hamburgers sold
- Multiply x by three to get the number of the cheeseburger
∴ The number of cheeseburger sold is 3x
∵ The shop sold a total of 388 hamburgers and cheeseburgers
- Ad x and 3x, then equate the sum by 388
∴ x + 3x = 388
- Add like terms in the left hand side
∴ 4x = 388
- Divide both sides by 4
∴ x = 97
There were 97 hamburgers sold on Thursday
