Answer :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total sales at restaurant A.

In a recent year, the total sales at a restaurant A were $175,000 more than restaurant B. This means that the total sales at restaurant B would be

x - 175000

Total sales at two restaurants were $575,000,000. Therefore

x + x - 175000 = 575000000

2x = 575000000 + 175000

2x = 575175000

x = 575175000/2 = 287587500

The the total sales at restaurant A for the year is $287587500

The the total sales at restaurant B for the year would be

$287587500 - 175000 = $287412500
