At a garage sale, a large bin full of DVDs and CDs are being sold. All the DVDs are the same price, and all the CDs are the same price.

Aleah buys 2 DVDs for $6 and 4 CDs for $8. Her friend, Ling, wants to buy 4 DVDs and 2 CDs. How much will Ling have to pay?

Aleah's brother, Pierre, wants to spend $20 on DVDs and CDs. What combination of DVDs and CDs could he buy?

Step-by-step explanation:

If Aleah buys 2 DVDs for $6 and 2 CDs for $8 we can well assume that the DVDs are $3 dollars each and the CDs are 4 Dollars Each. If ling wants to buy 4 DVDs You would multiply how many DVDs she's buying with the price of the DVDs so (4x3=12) so Ling would have to pay $12 for the DVDs and $8 on the CDs

Pierre wants to spend $20 so with the previous information we can come to the solution that Pierre can buy 4 DVDs and 2 CDs for $20.
