Let's first convert that amount of money into cents, which makes 336 cents. Then, let's denote the amount of money one of the boys has with x. The other boy has got 3x-12 amount of money. We can construct an equation. 3x-12+x=336. Solving it we find that x=87 cents or $ 0.87 and the other boy holds $2.49 amount of money.

Answer:

900 large boxes were sold, and 750 small boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of large boxes of cookies sold.

y is the number of small boxes of cookies sold.

A total of 1,650 boxes of Girl Scout cookies were sold last week.

This means that

x + y = 1650

So

x = 1650 - y

Each large box cost $3.50 and each small box cost $2.00. The Girl Scout group earned $4,650.

This means that

3.5x + 2y = 4650

Since x = 1650 - y

3.5(1650 - y) + 2y = 4650

5775 - 3.5y + 2y = 4650

1.5y = 1125

y = \frac{1125}{1.5}

y = 750

x = 1650 - y = 1650 - 750 = 900

900 large boxes were sold, and 750 small boxes.
