Answer:

185

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total number of boxes of cookies sold

We know Emily sold 40% of the total boxes for the fundraiser

The number of boxes would be represented as:

40/100x=0.40x

Since 74 boxes were sold, then the equation would be~

0.40x=74

0.40x 74

------- = ------

0.40 0.40

x=185
