Tasty Word Problem

A curious reader asked:

Pizza Plus sold a total of 580 pizzas ($6 each) and calzones ($8 each) during Sunday’s football game. How many of each item did Pizza Plus sell if the total sales were $3,734?

I’ve never been good at these things. Please help me to understand this. Thanks!!
