Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that at a hockey game, a vender sold a combined total of 204 sodas and hot dogs.

The number of sodas sold was three times the number of hot dogs sold.

Let no of hot dogs be sold be x then no of sodas sold will be 3x

Total number of sodas and hot dogs $= x+3x=204\\x=51\\3x=153$

the number of sodas =153

and the number of hot dogs sold=51
