Vong grilled 21 burgers at a block party. He grilled the same number of pounds of turkey burgers as hamburgers. Each turkey burger weighed 1/4 pound and each hamburger weighed 1/3 pound. How many of each did Vong grill?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Quantity Eq: t + h = 21
\n" ); document.write( "Weight Eq::: (1/4)t - (1/3)h = 0
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Modify the equations:
\n" ); document.write( "3t - 4h = 0
\n" ); document.write( "3t + 3h = 3*21
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 1st from the 2nd:
\n" ); document.write( "7h = 3*21
\n" ); document.write( "h = 9 (# of turkey burgers grilled)
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Since t + h = 21, h = 12 (# of hamburgers grilled)
