Equation is 4b + 5m = €10.90, and values of b and m are €1.35 and €1.1 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find equation for Thursday's sales.

Given b = price of a loaf of bread and m = price of one liter of milk

Total sales = €10.90

Equation ⇒ 4b + 5m = €10.90

  • Step 2: Find the values of b and m.

3b + 2m = 6.25 ----- (1)

4b + 5m = 10.90 ---- (2)

Multiply eq(1) by 5 and eq(2) by 2 to make coefficients of m equal.

15b + 10m = 31.25

8b + 10m = 21.8

Subtract eq(2) from eq(1)

⇒ 7b = 9.45

⇒ b = 9.45/7 = €1.35

Substitute for b and find m using eq(1).

⇒ 3 × 1.35 + 2m = 6.25

⇒ 4.05 + 2m = 6.25

⇒ 2m = 2.2

∴∴ m = 2.2/2 = €1.1

8.1 liters to meters
Wittaler [7]

The US equivalent of "liters to meters" would be something like
"quarts to yards", which is equally meaningless.

Liters and meters don't even measure the same thing.  Liters describe
volume, whereas meters describe length or distance.    They don't convert
to each other .

If volume units could be converted to length units, then you (or somebody
with a slightly better grasp of his math) would be able to figure out how many
inches of gas he put into his car last week, and the cost of a foot of milk.
