On Tuesday, a local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 440
\n" ); document.write( "hamburgers and cheeseburgers.
\n" ); document.write( "The number of cheeseburgers sold was three times the number of hamburgers sold. How many hamburgers were sold on Tuesday?
\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "h + c = 440
\n" ); document.write( "c = 3h
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for \"c\" and solve for \"h\":
\n" ); document.write( "3h + h = 440
\n" ); document.write( "4h = 440
\n" ); document.write( "h = 110 (# of hamburgers)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "c = 3h = 330 (# of cheesburgers)
