Moss and Roy both decide to go out for a 2 course dinner. Moss' meal cost twice as much as Roy's meal, however Roy spent $3 more than Moss for his dessert. Moss spent $11 on his desert. The bill came to $75. How much did Roy spend for his meal and dessert?

Answer 1

M = 2R

M + 11 + R + 11 + 3 = 75

Roy's dessert ... 11 + 3 = $14

3R + 25 = 75 ... R = 50/3

Roy's meal ... $50/3

Answer 2

So the answer is $41
