Correct option is A)
Let cost of burger = b, cost of shake = s
and cost of fries = f
Now, 3b+7s+f=120 ...(1)
And 4b+10s+f=164.50 ...(2)
Subtract the two equations we get
b+3s=44.5
∴b=44.5−3s ...(3)
Now, 3b+7s+f=120
or 2b+b+7s+f=120
2(44.5−3s)+b+7s+f=120 ....from (3)
89−6s+b+7s+f=120
∴b+s+f=31
Thus, cost of one burger, one shake and one fries is Rs. 31.
