He could get five of the 50 dollars cards, and 10 of the 20 dollars cards.

50 times 5 is 250.  20 times 10 is 200.   200 plus 250 equals to 450.

The number of restaurant gift cards is 5 and the number of movie theater gift cards is 10.

Mr. Thomsen is buying two types of gift cards to give as prizes to employees at a company meeting.

He will buy restaurant gift cards that each cost $50.

He will also buy movie theater gift cards that each cost $20.

He has $450 to buy a total of 15 gift cards.

Let the number of restaurant gift cards be x and the number of movie theater gift cards be y.

Then

x + y = 15 ...1

And

50x + 20y = 450 ...2

On solving equations 1 and 2, then we have

x = 5 and y = 10
