Solution

To solve this problem, we first need to determine the number of customers the coffee shop serves each day.

  1. Monday: We know that the coffee shop serves 20 extra customers on Monday compared to Tuesday through Friday. Since it serves 60 customers from Tuesday to Friday, it serves 60 + 20 = 80 customers on Monday.

  2. Thursday: The problem states that the coffee shop serves 60 customers from Tuesday through Friday. So, it serves 60 customers on Thursday.

  3. Saturday: The coffee shop serves one-third fewer customers on Saturday compared to Tuesday through Friday. One-third of 60 is 60/3 = 20. So, it serves 60 - 20 = 40 customers on Saturday.

  4. Sunday: The coffee shop serves half the number of customers on Sunday as it does on Monday. Since it serves 80 customers on Monday, it serves 80/2 = 40 customers on Sunday.

Finally, to find the total number of customers the coffee shop serves on Monday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday combined, we add the number of customers it serves each day: 80 (Monday) + 60 (Thursday) + 40 (Saturday) + 40 (Sunday) = 220 customers.
