Question 687924: in a recent year, the total sales at Restaurant A were $450000 more than at Restaurant B. Total sales at the two stores were $600000000. What were the sales for the year at each store? Answer by checkley79(3341) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! LET X BE THE INCOME FOR RESTAURANT B.
X+450000 IS THE INCOME FOR RESTAURANT A.
X+(X+450000)=600000000
2X=600000000-450000
2X=599550000
X=599550000/2
X=29977500 INCOME FOR RESTAURANT B.
299775000+450000=300225000 INCOME FOR RESTAURANT A.
PROOF:
299775000+300220000=600000000
