Question

A local Wal-Mart sells sweatpants ($7) and jackets ($14). If total sales were $6,160 and customers bought 8 times as many sweatpants as jackets, what would be the number of jackets sold?

Answer 1

I did this problem and I got 88 for the answer
but I am not 100% sure if its correct

Answer 2

$6,160 = $7s + 14j
s=8j
$6160 = $7(8j) = 14j= 70J
J=88
s=8(88) 704

Answer 3

can someone please help

Answer 4

\[$6,160=$7s+$14j\]\[s = 8j\]\[$6,160=$7(8j)+$14j\]\[$6,160=$70j\]\[j=88\]

Answer 5

You're correct: 88 jackets and 704 sweatpants were sold.
