If there are 76 food items at the barbeque, how many hamburgers will be served?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let H be the number of hamburgers.
Then the number of hot dogs is (H+4), according to the condition.
Next, the number of popsicles is 2H.
In total, you have this equation
H + (H+4) + 2H = 76.
Solve it and find H.
Then calculate the number of other items.
