Question

Sonji paid $25.00 for two scarves, which were different prices. When she got home she could not find the receipt. She remembered that one scarf cost $3 more

Answer 1

let one scarf's rate be x
then the other's rate will be x+3
so x+{x+3}=25$
hence 2x+3=25$
2x=22
x=11$
x+3=14$
∴ two scarfs are of rates 11$ and 14$
