A dairy farm has 2 cows, last month, cow A produced 250 gallons less than twice the amount of milk from cow B. Together, the two cows produced 1200 gallons of milk

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s get how much gallons of milk does cow B produced.

A + B = 1200 gallons of milk

(2B – 250) + B = 1200

3B = 1200 + 250

3B = 1450

3B/3 = 1450/3

B = 483 1/3 gallons

Now, let’s get how much gallons of milk does cow A produced.

A = 2B – 250

A = 2(483 1/3) – 250

A = 2(1450/3) – 250

A = (2900/3) -250

A = (966 2/3) – 250

A = 716 2/3 gallons
