Hello!
You can solve this algebraically
p + n = 115
p + 4.25n = 358.75
Subtract the two equations to eliminate p
-3.25n = -243.75
Divide both sides by -3.25
n = 75
Put n into the first equation
p + 75 = 115
Subtract 75 from both sides
p = 40
The answers are,
40 pounds of peanuts were sold
75 pounds of pecans were sold
Hope this helps!
