Decimal P6 2009 SA2 P2 MGS Q8

8. 1 bottle of shampoo and 1 bottle of bath foam cost $15.50 altogether. Mrs Yeo bought 3 bottles of shampoo and 5 bottles of bath foam for $59.70. How much did one bottle of bath foam cost?


1 S + 1 F --> $15.50
3 S + 5 F --> $59.70

3 S + 3 F --> 3 x 15.50 = 46.50

2 F à 59.70 – 46.50 = 13.20
1 F -- > 13.20 ÷ 2 = $6.60


One bottle of bath foam cost $6.60.
