At a soccer game, a vendor sold a combined a total of 220 sodas and hotdogs.
The number of sodas was sold was 46 more than the number of hotdogs sold.
Find the number of sodas sold and the number of hotdogs sold.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    sodas + hotdogs = 220

      x   +  (x-46) = 220

          2x        = 220 + 46 = 266

           x                   = 266/2 = 133.


ANSWER.  133 sodas and 133 - 46 = 87 hotdogs.


CHECK.   133 + 87 = 220 total items.   ! Correct !
