Question

Janis and Susan went to a clearance sale at a clothing store. All blouses were selling for the same price and all skirts were selling for the
same price. Janis bought 4 blouses and 3 skirts for a total of $68. Susan bought 6 blouses and 3 skirts for a total of $84. What was the cost
of each blouse and each skirt?

A blouse: $12; skirt: $12
B blouse: $12; skirt: $8
C blouse $10; skirt $14
Dblouse: $8; skirt $12

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Option D is the correct answer

Because if the blouse is of 8 dollars then 4 blouses = 32 and skirt = 12 so 3 skirts = 36

36 + 32 = 68

Susan bought 6 blouses = 8 x 6 = 48

3 skirts = 12 x 3 = 36

48 + 36 = 84
