Question

Lucas bought a dress shirt, a hat, and a belt. The price of the dress shirt is $3 more than the price of the belt.

The hat costs $5 less than the dress shirt. He paid a total of $49. What is the price of each item?

Answer 1

Dress shirt: 19.3333333

hat: 14.3333333

belt: 15.3333334

Explanation:

49÷3= 16.3333333

16.3333333+3= 19.3333333 dress shirt.

19.3333333-5= 14.3333333 hat.

19.3333333+14.3333333= 33.6666666

49-33.6666666= 15.3333334 belt.
