    X = large bag of popcorn

    y = small bag of popcorn

    x + y = 200 ... x = 200 - y

    4x + 6y = 900

    4 (200 - y) + 6y = 900

    800 - 4y + 6y = 900

    -4y + 6y = 900 - 800

    2y = 100

    y = 50 < = = = large bags sold

    x + y = 200

    x + 50 = 200

    x = 200 - 50

    x = 150 < = = small bags
