256
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's call the hamburgers h and the cheeseburgers c.
h+c=500
c=h-50
Let's plug this value for c into the first equation to solve for h.
h+h-50=500
2h-50=500
Add 50 to both sides.
2h=550
Divide both sides by 2.
h=275
Therefore, 275 hamburgers were sold on Wednesday.
Have a wonderful day! :D
