38b + 61t = 791.50....multiply by 27
54b + 50t = 923.....multiply by -19
-------------------
1026b + 1647t = 21370.5 (result of multiplying by 27)
-1026b - 950t = - 17537 (result of multiplying by -19)
------------------add
697t = 3833.50
t = 3833.50 / 697
t = 5.50 <=== cost of each towel

38b + 61t = 791.50
38b + 61(5.50) = 791.50
38b + 335.50 = 791.50
38b = 791.50 - 335.50
38b = 456
b = 456/38
b = 12 <== cost of each bed sheet

so the cost of 1 towel and 1 bed sheet is : 12 + 5.50 = 17.50

Shelly ran 2 1/4 miles Lynne ran 3 1/8 Miles WhobRan Farther and by how much
ValentinkaMS [17]
Lynne ran farther and by 7/8 miles 

You can tell Lynne ran further because she ran 3 whole miles while shelly only ran 2 whole miles. Now you have to subtract to see how much Lynne had ran more.

You found a common denominator between 8 and 4. 4 can turn into 8. so you multiply 4x2 and 1x2 to get a mixed number of 2 2/8

Now you have to turn 3 1/8 because you cannot subtract 2/8 from 1/8. You can turn the fraction into 2 9/8 because there are 8 pieces in a whole.

2 9/8 - 2 2/8 = 0 7/8

Hope this helps! :)
