Lee sold 45 more cheese cupcakes than cranberry cupcakes on Thursday. On Friday, the number of cranberry cupcakes he sold decreased by 75% while the number of cheese cupcakes he sold remained the same. He sold each tart for $2.30. He sold a total of 295 cupcakes on Friday. How much money did he receive from the sale of cupcakes on both days?

	Cheese cupcakes	Cranberry cupcakes	Total
Comparing cheese and cranberry cupcakes  at first	45 more
Before	4 u + 45	4 u	8 u + 45
Change		- 3 u
After	4 u + 45	1 u	5 u + 45

75% = ⁷⁵₁₀₀ = ³₄

Total number of cupcakes sold on Friday
= 4 u + 45 + 1 u
= 5 u + 45

5 u + 45 = 295
5 u = 295 - 45
5 u = 250 

1 u = 250 ÷ 5 = 50

Total number of cupcakes sold on Thursday
= 4 u + 45 + 4 u
= 8 u + 45

Total number of cupcakes sold on both days
= 5 u + 45 + 8 u + 45
= 13 u + 90
= 13 x 50 + 90
= 650 + 90
= 740

Total amount received from the sale of cupcakes on both days
= 740 x 2.30
= $1702

Answer(s): $1702
