Alocal hamburger shop sold a combined total of 562 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on saturday. there were 62 more cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers. how many hamburgers were sold on saturday?

250 because 562 - 62 = 500 so  500/2 =250

Let C= number of cheeseburgers sold

There were 62 more cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers.

C - 62 = number of hamburgers sold

C - C-62 = 562

2C - 62 = 562

Then you add 562 plus 62 and it will equal ti 624

2C = 624

Times 624 from 2 it will be 1,248

C= 1,248 (number of cheeseburgers sold)
