It makes a profit of $25 on a unit of lumber and $45 on a unit of plywood. How many of each unit must be produced and sold tin order to make a profit of $11960?

Units of lumber sold: 104
Units of plywood sold: 208
solved using system of equations:
25L + 45P = 11960
2L = P
check:
104x$25=$2600
208x$45=$9360
9360+2600=11960
