Answer 2

Answer:

70$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using unitary method,

By selling 56 hot dogs Winston makes $140

So the cost of one hot dog is 140/56, which is 10/4

Let n be the number of hot dogs.

Therefore, 10/4 * n = 175, which implies that the number of hot dogs multiplied by the cost of one hot dog should be equal to 175.

Transposing,

10n= 175*4

10n= 700

n=70

Therefore Winston will have to sell 70 hotdogs to make a total of $175.00
