Answer:

Number of tuna sandwiches is 80

Those in white bread = 1/2*80 =40

Those in brown bread = 0.25 *80 =20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 1/2 of the tuna sandwiches are on white bread and 25% of the tuna sandwiches sold are on brown bread then let x to represent the number of tuna sandwiches available.Form expressions as;

0.5 x --------number of Tuna sandwiches on white bread

0.25 x-------number of Tuna sandwiches on brown bread

Given that 20 more white bread were sold than the brown bread then the expression for this statement will be;

0.5 x - 0.25 x = 20

0.25 x =20

x= 20/0.25 = 80

Number of tuna sandwiches is 80

Those in white bread = 1/2*80 =40

Those in brown bread = 0.25 *80 =20
