Answer:

4 songs

Explanation:

Given data,

Adventure play sells mp3 = $18

Charges per song = $3.25

King music sell Mp3 = $23

Charges per song = $2

Let number of songs be Y, then we can calculate by using following method,

Adventure play MP3 cost + charges per song = Kings Music MP3 cost + charges per song

By putting the value, we get

$18 + $3.25 Y = $23 + $2 Y

By solving the equation,

$3.25 Y - $2Y = $23 - $18

$1.25 Y = $5

Y = $5 ÷ $1.25

Y = 4 songs

Hence, for 4 songs the cost be same.
