Answer:

50 gluten-free cupcakes and 100 regular cupcakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the variables:

R = number of regular cupcakes sold

G = number of gluten-free cupcakes sold

The total amount of money raised then is:

M = R*$2.00 + G*$3.00

We also know that:

The number of regular cupcakes sold was 2 times the number of gluten-free cupcakes sold.

then:

R = 2*G

And we also know that the amount of money raised is $350

Then we have the equations:

R = 2*G

R*$2.00 + G*$3.00 = $350

We can replace the first equation into the second one, so we have only one variable:

(2*G)*$2.00 + G*$3.00 = $350

Now we can solve this for G.

G*$4.00 + G*$3.00 = $350

G*$7.00 = $350

G = $350/$7.00 = 50

G = 50

50 gluten-free cupcakes where sold.

And using the equation:

R = 2*G = 2*50 = 100

We can conclude that 100 regular cupcakes were sold.
