Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
f + n = 476
n =476-f
f= 476-n
476 originally = n+f
476-208= 268 left
5n/9 + 4f/7 = 476-208=268
5(476-f)/9 + 4f/7 = 268
multiply by 7(9) to eliminate fractions
5(7)(476-f) +4(9)f = 268(7)(9)
5(7)(476) - 5(7)f + 4(9)f = 268(7)(9)
36f-35f = 268(7)(9)-476(5)(7)
f = 224 original foldable bicycles
n = 476-224 = 252 non-foldable bicycles originally
5n/9 = 5(252)/9 = 5(28)=140 non-foldables left
4f/7 = 4(224)/7 = 4(32) = 124 foldables left
224-124 = 100 foldables sold
252-140 = 112 non-foldables sold
