Answer:
The number of number of bags of snacks = m = 176
The number of beverages supplied = m + 19 = 176 +9 = 185
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume the number of bags of snacks = m
So, the number of beverages supplied = m + 19
Total number of items supplied = 371
⇒ Number of (snacks + beverages) supplied= 371
⇒ m + (m +19) = 371
or, 2 m = 371 - 19 = 352
or, m = 352 / 2 = 176
⇒ m = 176
Hence the number of number of bags of snacks = m = 176
So, the number of beverages supplied = m + 19 = 176 +9 = 185
