Tell me what grade you in and maybe I.can message u on here if your in sixth grade or lower I can help
Let the cost of one book= x cents
Let the money john have= y cents
According to the question,
45x=y ...eq(1)
(45+5)(x-5)=y
50(x-5)=y
50x-250=y ...eq(2)
On subtracting (1) from (2).
(50x-250)-45x=y-y
5x-250=0
x=250/5
x=50
Thus, cost of each book is 50 cents and john has 2250 cents.
Hope it helps.
Don't feel shy in saying thx if it helps.

Step-by-step explanation:
2 3/8 - 1/4 = 2 1/8 x 1/8 = 17/64.
To do this, you first need to do the problem in the (). You have to turn 1/4 with a denominator of eight, so the fraction becomes 2/8. 2 3/8 - 2/8 = 2 1/8. Now we have to turn 2 1/8 into an improper fraction by doing whole number x denominator + numerator. 17/8 x 1/8 = 17/64.
