Question

Prisha is buying sandwiches at a café for herself and her daughter. If she buys 2 tuna sandwiches, the cost will be $14. If she buys 1 tuna sandwich and 1 chicken sandwich, the cost will be $16. How much will the cost be if she buys 2 chicken sandwiches?

Answer 1

18$

Explanation:

2 tuna sandwiches= 14$

1 tuna sandwich= 14÷2 = 7$

1 tuna sandwich + 1 chicken sandwich = 16$

7$ +1 cs= 16$

1 chicken sandwich = 16$- 7$

1 chicken sandwich = 9$

2 chicken sandwiches = 9x2 = 18$
