On Wednesday, a local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 327 hamburgers and cheeseburgers. The number of cheeseburgers sold was two times the number of hamburgers sold. How many hamburgers were sold on Wednesday?

The number of hamburgers is 109.

Explanation:

Let h = number of hamburgers

Let c = number of cheeseburgers

The total number sold gives us the equation below.

h + c = 327

"The number of cheeseburgers sold was two times the number of hamburgers sold.

This gives us the equation

c = 2h

Now we substitute c with 2h in the first equation and solve for h.

h + 2h = 327

3h = 327

h = 109

The number of hamburgers is 109.
