The cost of video game system is $ 420 and the cost of game is $ 140

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The total cost of the video game system and the several game = $ 560

Let, the cost of several game = x and

The cost of video game system = 3x

To find the cost of the system and the games

According to the problem,

x + 3x = 560

or, 4x = 560

or, x = $\frac{560}{4}$

= $ 140

Hence, the cost of several game = $ 140 and

The cost of video game system = $ 3 × 140 = $ 420
