Let a be the number of 0,4 l glasses and b the number of 0,2 l glasses Then, we wrote the equations: a+b=180; 0,4a+0,2b=55,4l By multiplying the second one by 5, we get: 2a+b=277
Here is how we worked
Here is how we worked
As b = 180 a, we replaced it in the second equation and got: 2a + 180 - a = 277 a = 277 180 a = 97 b = 180 97 b = 83
