Answer:
206 Cornish hens
169 turkeys
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the number of Cornish hens sold. Then c-37 is the number of turkeys sold. The total sales would be ...
... c + (c-37) = 375
... 2c = 412 . . . . collect terms, add 37
... c = 206 . . . . Cornish hens sold
... (c-37) = 169 . . . turkeys sold

<em>Comment on this type of problem</em>
Note that the solution to this problem is that the larger number (number of cornish hens) is half the sum of the total and the difference: (375+37)/2 = 206. This is the general solution for this type of "sum and difference" problem.
The larger contributor is half the total plus half the difference; the smaller contributor is half the total minus half the difference.
Cornish hens = (1/2)(375 +37) = 206
Turkeys = (1/2)(375 -37) = 169
The next terms are 73, 106, 145 and 190
