Alocal ace hardware sells batteries ($3) and small boxes of pens ($4). in august, total sales were $976. customers bought 4 times as many batteries as boxes of pens. how many of each did ace hardware sell?

Step-by-step explanation:

let us assume the amount of battery boxes as 3x and pen boxes as 4x

since the battery sale is 4 times more,

3 (4x) =12 x

so 4x +12x = 16x

total money received is 976 rupees

so 16x =976

x =976÷16 = 61

AMOUNT OF BATTERY BOXES =4X = 4×61= 244 BOXES

AMOUNT OF PEN BOXES = X= 61 BOXES
