One weekend, a newsstand sold twice as many Sunday papers as Friday papers. The Sunday paper costs $1.50, and the Friday paper c
osts $0.75. How many Sunday papers were sold if the newsstand took in $116.25?
1 answer:
1.50s + 0.75f = 116.25
2f = s
1.50(2f) + 0.75f = 116.25
3f + 0.75f = 116.25
3.75f = 116.25
f = 116.25/3.75
f = 31...31 friday papers
2f = s
2(31) = s
62 = s <=== 62 sunday papers
