Answer:

I'm pretty sure the answer would be 102

Step-by-step explanation:

you divide 408 by 4 because the cheeseburgers sold 3x as much as the hamburgers.

102 hamburgers sold
306 cheeseburgers sold

h = hamburgers
c = cheeseburgers

c = 3h (number of cheeseburgers sold was three times the number of hamburgers sold)

c + h = 408

Substitute in the fact that c = 3h to the other equation:

3h + h = 408
4h = 408
h = 102

3h = 3(102) = 306

Check the math: 306 + 102 = 408
