Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
4 scones
1 loaf of bread
Total cost = 3.30
Equation
Let the loaf of bread = b
Let the scones = s
Cost = b + 4s
Solution
Substitute the givens into the equation
b + 4s = Cost
90 + 4s = 3.30 Subtract 90 from both sides
90-90 + 4s = 3.30-90 Combine
4s = 2.40 Divide by 4
4s/4 = 2.40/4
s = 0.6 of a pound
Answer: 1 scone = 60 pence.
