Question

Erica bought a pencil, a rubber and a ruler for £1. Fritz bought three pens for 75p. Geraldine bought two rubbers and a pen for 45p. Horace bought a pencil, a ruler and a pen.

Answer 1

Okay so, one pen equals to 25p, one rubber equals to 10p, and Erica bought a pencil, a rubber, and a ruler for 1 pound, which means 25p+10p equals to 35p, and 100-35= 65p, so one ruler costs 65p, so Horace bought a pencil, a ruler and a pen, we know one pencil equals 25p, a ruler costs 65p, and a pen also equals 25p, so 25+65+25 = 115, so 1pound 15 p
