1 answer:
Answer:
For one meal each person paid 1.07 times the price of the meal (includes 7% tax).
Therefore price of each person's meal was 13.75/1.07 = $12.85
Total cost for all 5 meals was therefore $64.25--before taxes. $68.75 including the taxes.

This is how I would solve it:
1st # = x 4(x+1)=3x+18
2nd # = x+1 4x+4=3x+18
4x=3x+14
x=14
To check: 15x4=60; 60-42=18. <u>1st # = 14; 2nd # = 15.</u>
