# boxes of candy = c = 72
Four times the number of teddy bears is how much candy they sold:
4t = c
11t + 5c = 558
So we will substitute the value of c into the second expression and solve for a numerical value of t
11t + 5(4t) = 558
11t + 20t = 558
31t = 558
t = 18
c = 4t
c = 4(18)
c = 72
Check the math:
11(18) + 5(72)
= 198 + 360
= 558
Please let me know if you have any questions
