The school cafeteria sells two kinds of wraps: vegetarian and chicken. The vegetarian wrap cost $1 and the chicken wrap cost$1.8
vfiekz [6]
Let us assume the number of vegetarian wraps made = x
Let us assume the number of chicken wraps made = y
Then
x + y = 70
x = 70 - y
And
x + 1.80y = 98.80
Putting the value of x from the first equation in the second equation, we get
x + 1.80y = 98.80
70 - y + 1.80y = 98.80
0.80y = 28.80
y = 36
Putting the value of y in the first equation, we get
x + y = 70
x + 36 = 70
x = 34
From the above deduction, we can conclude that the number of vegetarian warps sold was 34. I hope the answer has come to your desired help.
