Ok, so I have a question that goes like this:
Short of guessing the answers I have no idea how to do this question. I've worked out that A/8 + B + 10C = 100, but have no idea how to find the answers from this.
My teacher has told me that there's two answers, one is trivial and one is slightly harder to find.
Any help would be great.
Cheers.
Three different articles A, B and C can be purchased from a shop. Article A is sold at the rate of 8 for $1. Article B is sold for $1 each and article C is sold for $10 each. In total, 100 items are purchased for $100. The purchase includes all three types of articles. How many of each article are purchased?
