Question

Ben and Jerry’s sells 6 times more ice cream cones ($3) than shakes ($8). If last month’s sales totaled $7,800, how many of each were sold

Answer 1

Let x = number of shakes

Then 6x = number of ice cream cones

3(6x) + 8x = 7800

26x = 7800

x = 300

They sold 300 shakes and 1800 ice cream cones.
