Hey all, anyone here want to try and help me with this math problem? I forgot how to do it

2 Types of burgers so half the total amount 639/2= 319.5. Take the 61/2 = 30.5. Add to one side subtract from the other Burgers 319.5 + 30.5 = 350 Cheese burgers 319.5 - 30.5 = 289. 350-289 = 61. 350+289 =639

Yooo. That makes sense. I was trying to make a 2 variable inequality lol. Thank you very much

I'd avoid @AdoraBelle Dearheart for a little. She might be angry you didn't make me figure it out on my own .

I was about to consult Mrs. Badger, who is a math teacher. But I see that Iti has it under control.

Or easier way is take the 61 off the 639
Half the result of that and add the 61 back on to one half

Very good, never thought of that

Ha Ha, I do the accounts for a small company, I am always dealing in number puzzles so when I come across problems I work backwards, or what is the defining factor in the puzzle. This time it was the 61.
