Shopping Basket
This is a very tricky problem and it has puzzled many of you for
several months.
However, Douglas at Burgoyne Middle School has
cracked it.
He says that he found a similar problem in a book which
actually gave three of the prices. This made it a bit easier to get
started.
Douglas lists the answers as:
£1.20, £1.25, £1.50 and £3.16.
Unfortunately, when we asked how he did it, Douglas couldn't
remember his method.
If you think that you can explain how to arrive at these prices,
please let us know.
