$245/2 = $122.50+20+15 = 157.5 is the answer though.
Step-by-step explanation:
35x+20(x-1)
35x + (20x -1)
35x +20x -1
35x -20x-20
x= 53/11
53/11 = 4.81
4.81 x 20 = $96.20 on chairs
4.81 x 15 = 72.15 on umbrella
96+72 = 168.35
245-168.35 = 76.65
76.65 + 20 = 96.65
Because we subtracted to get 168.35 we have the difference of $15 which is the difference of what he and she paid we half this amount = $7.50 half the 0.45 additional found on Dans $96.65 = $0.22 and find $7.72 balance to add to his 96.20
Added together his costs out of 245 was $104.37+ 76.65 = $181.20
