Sonji paid $25 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 than the other. What was the price of the more expensive scarf?

$14

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the variables:

x

x + 3

2x + 3 = 25

2x = 22

x = 11

11, 14

$14

Step-by-step explanation:

price of cheaper scarf → x

price of more expensive scarf → x + 3

x + x + 3 = 25

2x + 3 = 25

2x = 22

x = 11

The cheaper scarf costs $11 so the more expensive scarf costs $14.
