20 pounds of Gummyballs and 5 pounds of caramel was ordered

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Gummyball = a

Caramel = b

a + b = 25 - - - (1)

5a + 8b = 140 - - - (2)

From (1)

a = 25 - b

Put into (2)

5(25 - b) + 8b = 140

125 - 5b + 8b = 140

125 + 3b = 140

3b = 15

b = 5

From a = 25 - b

a = 25 - 5

a = 20

Hence,

20 pounds of Gummyballs and 5 pounds of caramel was ordered
