Fred buys a binder for $4.50 and six reams of paper. latasha buys an ink cartridge for $17.50 and four reams of paper. both spend the same amount of money. what is the price of one ream of paper?

The the price of one ream of paper is $6.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, Let us assume the cost of one ream of paper  = $  m

The money spent by Fred:

The money spent on a  binder  = $4.50

The money spent on 6 ream of papers  =  6 x ( cost of 1 ream )

= 6 x ($m) = 6 m

⇒The total money Fred spent  = Money spent on (binder + 6 ream of papers)  

= 4.50 + 6 m   (1)

The money spent by Latasha:

The money spent on a cartridge = $17.50

The money spent on 4 ream of papers  =  4 x ( cost of 1 ream )

= 4 x ($m) = 4 m

⇒The total money Latasha spent  = Money spent on (cartridge + 4 ream of papers)  

= 17 .50 + 4 m   (2)

Also, Both spend the same amount of money

⇒4.50 + 6 m = 17 .50 + 4 m   ( from (1) and (2))

or, 6 m - 4  m= 17. 50 - 4, 50

or, 2 m =  13

or, m = 13/ 2  = 6.5

So, the value of m = $6.5

Hence, the the price of one ream of paper is $6.5.
