Answer:
21 cups of coffee
Step-by-step explanation:
So the coffee:tea is 3:2. We can put it as 3x+2x=35 as we know there are 35 drinks, do not know the exact number of coffee and tea, but know the ratio.
- 3x+2x=35
- 3x+2x=35
- Combine like terms, 5x=35
- Divide by 5 to isolate variable, x=7
Now, x=7. So coffee is 3(7)=21 and tea is 2(7)=14.
