Problema Solution
in a recent year, the total sales at resturant A were $300,000 more than at Restaurant B. Total sales at the two stores were $625,000,000. What were the sales for the year at each store
Answer provided by our tutors
a + b = 625000000
a = 300000 + b
300000 + b + b = 625000000
300000 + 2b = 625000000
2b = 62200000
b = 31100000
a = 300000 + b
a = 300000 + 31100000
a = 31400000
so A's sales were $31,400,000 and B's sales were $31,100,000
