Question

Five pencils and 4 erasers cost $7.65. Four pencils and 5 erasers cost $7.20.What is the cost of 2 erasers?

Answer 1

I think this is right.. I tried my best. If u get it sorry... I’m very sorry



1. Divide 7.20 by 4 since the 4 are the pencils

2.divide 7.20 by 5 ( 5 represents the erasers )

3. Then finally multiply 1.44 from 7.20/5 and
2 and u get 2.88
