Answer:
- Washington had 196 hits
- Sanchez had 194 hits
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the number of hits Sanchez had. Then Washington had (s+2) hits, and their hit total was ...
s +(s+2) = 390
2s = 388 . . . . . . subtract 2
s = 194 . . . . . . . . divide by 2
Sanchez had 194 hits; Washington had 196.
let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then to do away with the denominators, let's multiply both sides by the LCD of all denominators.
