6,000 for the hotdogs and 4,000 for the hamburgers

GreenSlime

400 Hamburgers
600 Hot dogs

Divide 2,400 by two because that's how many items they sold. You'll get 1,200.

Divide 1,200 by 3 because that's how much a hamburger costs and you'll end up with 400

Divide 1,200 by 2 because that's how much a hot dog costs and you'l end up with 600

To check, multiply 400x3 and 600x2

Then add the sums together- 1,200+1,200= 2,400
