Answer: He sold 634 steak sandwiches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the number of hot dogs and y denotes the number of steak sandwiches.

According to the given statements , we have

x+y=985-----------(1)\\\\ 2.95x+9.95y=7343.75----------------(2)

Multiply 2.95 to equation (1) , we get

2.95x+2.95y=2.95(985)

2.95x+2.95y=2905.75  (3)

Eliminate equation (2) from equation (3) , we get

7y=4438\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=\dfrac{4438}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=634

Hence, he sold 634 steak sandwiches.
