Let's represent the number of sodas sold as x and the number of hot dogs sold as y.
According to the information given, we have two equations:
1) x + y = 246
2) y = x - 46
Substitute equation 2 into equation 1:
x + (x - 46) = 246
2x - 46 = 246
2x = 292
x = 146
Now, plug in the value of x back into equation 2 to find y:
y = 146 - 46
y = 100
Therefore, the number of sodas sold was 146 and the number of hot dogs sold was 100.
