Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

20 Chocolate cupcakes and 15 vanilla cupcakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use c for chocolate cupcakes and v for vanilla cupcakes.

3/4c=v

c+v=35

Use substitution

c+3/4c=35

1 3/4c=35 or 7/4c=35 --> Multiply by reciprocal

c=20

Plug it into an equation

20+v=35

v=15
