Answer: 225 hamburgers were sold on friday

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of hamburgers

and x-75 represent cheeseburgers

such that total hamburgers and cheeseburgers sold on Friday equaling 375 can be represented as

x + (x-75) =375

2x-75=375

2x=375+75

2x =450

x=450/2=225

Hamburgers =225

cheeseburgers= x-75=225-75=150
