Question

Isaac paid $119.70 for a racket ,a bag ,and a pair of shoes. a pair of shoes cost three times as much as a bag.the racket cost twice as much as the bag.how much did Isaac pay for the racket?

Answer 1

let the cost of bag be X then price of racket will be 2x and the price of shoe is 3X

therefore 3X+2X+X=119.70

6X=119.70

X=19.95

therefore racket =2X = 2×19.95=39.9 ans
