Yolanda, Hong, and Ahmad served a total of 70 orders Monday at the school cafeteria. Yolanda served 6 fewer orders than Ahmad. Hong served 2 times as

many orders as Ahmad. How many orders did they each serve?

Answer:Yolanda served 13 orders.

Ahmad served 19 orders.

Hong served 38 orders.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of orders that Ahmad served.

Yolanda served 6 fewer orders than Ahmad. This means that the number of orders that Yolanda served is x - 6

Hong served 2 times as

many orders as Ahmad. This means that the number of orders that Hong served is 2x

Yolanda, Hong, and Ahmad served a total of 70 orders Monday at the school cafeteria. This means that

x - 6 + x + 2x = 70

4x - 6 = 70

4x = 70 + 6 = 76

x = 76/4 = 19

Hong served 2 * 19 = 38

Yolanda served 19 - 6 = 13
