Question

Chuck brought $40.00 to the state fair. He bought a burger, a souvenir, and a pass. The burger was 1 /4 as much as the souvenir, and the souvenir cost 2 /3 the cost of the pass. Chuck had $1.50 left over after buying these items.

Answer 1

Answer:

Souvenir = £14

Burger = £3.50

Pass = £21

Step-by-step explanation:

Souvenir = £x

Burger = $\frac{1}{4}x$

Pass = $\frac{3}{2}x$

$\frac{1}{4}x + \frac{3}{2}x +x = 40 - 1.5$

$\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{6}{4}x+x= 38.5$

$\frac{11}{4}x = 38.5$

$11x = 154$

$x = 14$
