Answer:

The answer to your question is  He bought 7 large candles and 9 small candles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Large candles = L    cost = $7

small candles = s     cost = $3

Total cost = $76

Total candles = 16

Process

- Write two equations

                                    L  +  s  =  16     ------------ (I)

                                   7L +  3s = 76    ------------- (II)

- Solve the system of equations by elimination

  Multiply equation I by -7

                                 -7L - 7s = -112

                                  7L  + 3s = 76

Simplify

                                    0 - 4s = - 36

Solve for s

                                            s = -36 / -4

                                            s = 9

Substitute s in equation I

                                  L  + 9 = 16

Solve for L

                                  L = 16 - 9

                                   L = 7
