Answer:The cafeteria sold 2 Ham sandwiches and 10 Turkey sandwiches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of Ham sandwiches be rep as x

and turkey sandwiches be x+8

such that the equation to solve the question since total amount of sandwiches sold is 12 becomes '

x + x+8=12

2x+8=12

2x=12-8=44

x=4/2=2

Therefore number of ham sandwiches sold is 2

and number of turkey sandwiches sold is x+8=2+8=10
