Question

A washer and a dryer cost $857 combined. The washer costs $43 less than the dryer. What is the cost of the dryer? $

Answer 1

Answer:$450

Explanation:

If the washer cost 43 less than the dryer and we know that they are both 857 combined, then if we add 43 to 857 we have two dryers.

43+857=900

900/2=450

The dryer is $450
