The given sentence is: "The hamburger came from Hamburg, Germany, and the hot dog came from Frankfurt."
To determine the sentence type, let's break it down:
"The hamburger came from Hamburg, Germany." - This is a simple sentence because it consists of one independent clause ("The hamburger came from Hamburg, Germany").
"and" - This conjunction indicates that there is another independent clause following.
"the hot dog came from Frankfurt." - This is also a simple sentence because it consists of one independent clause ("The hot dog came from Frankfurt").
