The price of the pear is $0.6

Given:

The total cost of lunch is $3.50, consisting of a juice, a sandwich, and a pear.The juice cost 1.5 times as much as the pear.The sandwich costs $1.40 more than the pear.

From above statements

Juice + sandwich + pear = $3.50      -----------eq(1)

Juice = 1.5 * pear

sandwich = pear + $1.40

substitute juice and sandwich values in eq(1)

1.5 pear + pear + $1.40 + pear = $3.50

3.5 pear = $3.50 - $1.40

pear = $2.10/3.5

pear = $0.60

Hence the price of the pear is $0.6
