Answer:
The total cost of 14 onions and 16 potatoes will be £6.10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let onion be n and potato by p
20n = £3.00
1n = £3.00/20
= £0.15
25p = £6.25
1p = £6.25/25
= £0.25
The cost of 1 onion is £0.15, and 1 potato is £0.25
Then the cost of 14 onion and 16 potatoes together will given as
14n + 16p
substituting the values of n and p, we will have
14*0.15 + 16*0.25
2.1 + 4
= £6.10
