On Wednesday, the number of cheese scones he sold decreased by 60% while the number of strawberry scones he sold remained the same. He sold each tart for $2.80. He sold a total of 380 scones on Wednesday. How much money did he receive from the sale of scones on both days?

	Strawberry scones	Cheese scones	Total
Comparing strawberry and cheese scones  at first	30 more
Before	5 u + 30	5 u	10 u + 30
Change		- 3 u
After	5 u + 30	2 u	7 u + 30

60% = ⁶⁰₁₀₀ = ³₅

Total number of scones sold on Wednesday
= 5 u + 30 + 2 u
= 7 u + 30

7 u + 30 = 380
7 u = 380 - 30
7 u = 350 

1 u = 350 ÷ 7 = 50

Total number of scones sold on Tuesday
= 5 u + 30 + 5 u
= 10 u + 30

Total number of scones sold on both days
= 7 u + 30 + 10 u + 30
= 17 u + 60
= 17 x 50 + 60
= 850 + 60
= 910

Total amount received from the sale of scones on both days
= 910 x 2.80
= $2548

Answer(s): $2548
