    Answer: 143 hamburgers and 429 cheese burgers

    Explanation:

    Call h and c the number of both items.

    (h-hamburger and c-cheeseburger)

    h + c = 572

    c = 3h

    Sub the second into the first

    h + 3h = 572

    4h = 572

    Divide both sides by 4

    h = 143 hamburgers

    Use this back into the second equation

    c = 3 • 143 = 429 cheeseburgers
