Answer:

  • 72

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Cost of each item:</u>

  • Pizza = $1.50, Hotdogs = $1.25

<u>Number of each item:</u>

  • Pizza = x, Hotdogs = x + 20

<u>Total cost:</u>

  • 1.25x + 1.5(x + 20) = 173
  • 1.25x + 1.5x + 30 = 173
  • 2.75x = 143
  • x = 143/2.75
  • x = 52

<u>Number of slices of pizza:</u>

  • 52 + 20 = 72

\mathrm{Subtract\:each\:column\:of\:digits,\:starting\:from\:the\:right\:and\:working\:left}

\mathrm{In\:the\:bolded\:column,\:subtract\:the\:second\:digit\:from\:the\:first}:\quad \:6-2=4\\
