Question 757754: Art and Paul sell trucks for Blue Auto. Over the past year they sold 240 trucks. Assuming Paul sells 7 times as many trucks as Art, how many trucks did they each sell? Answer by knighty2002uk(39) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! if paul sells 7 time as many as art, for every 1 art sells paul sells 7 meaning a total of 8 each time.
240/8=30
1*30=30 (art)
7*30=210 (paul)
210+30=240 sales
