X parts planned for each team.
1st team produced 0.2x more than planned.
2nd team produced 0.15x more than planned.
0.2x + 0.15x = 118.
X = 337.
Two teams of workers were scheduled to produce 680 parts in a month. The first team produced 20% more parts than planned and the second team produced 15% more than planned. The two teams together produced 118 parts more than planned. How many parts was each team supposed to produce according to the plan?

sorry this answer is incorrect
1.2a+1.15b=(680+118)=798 and a+b=680,
Solving for a from the second equation we get: a=680-b
Using 680-b for a in the first equation we get:
1.2(680-b)+1.15b=798
816-1.2b+1.15b=798
816-0.05b=798
-0.05b=-18
b=360, and since a=680-b
a=320
So the a team was supposed to produce 320 parts and the b team was supposed to produce 360 parts
Solving for a from the second equation we get: a=680-b
Using 680-b for a in the first equation we get:
1.2(680-b)+1.15b=798
816-1.2b+1.15b=798
816-0.05b=798
-0.05b=-18
b=360, and since a=680-b
a=320
So the a team was supposed to produce 320 parts and the b team was supposed to produce 360 parts
First Team: 320 Parts
Second Team: 360 Parts
Second Team: 360 Parts
That's correct!
