At the movies, a couple bought 2 medium drinks and a large popcorn for $13.85. At the same theater, a family bought 3 medium drinks and 2 large popcorns for a total of $23.90. What is the cost of a large popcorn?

Drink = $3.80
Popcorn = $6.25

(6.25x2) + (3.80x3)
12.50 + 11.40
23.90


6.25 + (3.80 x2)
6.25 + 7.60
13.85
