Croissants and Danish Sales Problem

Hard Word Problems Advanced Algebra

A small bakery sells two types of pastries: croissants and danishes. The total number of pastries sold in one day was 240.

If the bakery sold twice as many croissants as danishes, how many croissants were sold that day?

Let the number of danishes sold be d. Then, the number of croissants sold can be expressed as 2d.

Set up the equation based on the information given:

$$d + 2d = 240$$

Now, solve for d to find the number of croissants sold.
