Nick spent $932 on skirts and hoodies. The number of hoodies he bought was ¹₄ the number of skirts he bought. The cost of a hoodie was $8 more than the cost of a skirt. He paid $508 more on skirts than on hoodies. Find the cost of 3 skirts and 10 hoodies.

	Skirts	Hoodies
Number of sets	4 sets	1 set
Compare each		$8 more
Total value	$720	$212

Total cost of hoodies
= (932 - 508) ÷ 2
= $212

Total cost of skirts
= 212 + 508
= $720

4 sets of skirts = $720
1 set of skirts = 720 ÷ 4 = $180 

1 set of hoodies = $212

Difference in 1 set of hoodies and 1 set of skirts
= 212 - 180
= $32

Number of clothing in 1 set
= 32 ÷ 8
= 4

Cost of 1 skirt
= 180 ÷ 4
= $45

Cost of 1 hoodie
= 45 + 8
= $53

Price of 3 skirts and 10 hoodies
= (3 x 45) + (10 x 53)
= 135 + 530
= $665

Answer(s): $665
