Question

Lisa paid $212.00 for a game system and then bought two

Answer 1

This problem can be represented by:

212+2p=256

Which means that the game system and the price of the two games will equal $256.

If we subtract the game system by the total price:

256-212

We get 44.

Now we are left with:

2p=44

Now you can divide 2 to get p by itself so now

p=22

So the price of one game is $22.00
