Barbara paid a total of $192 for a hoodie, a pair of socks and a pair of high heels. She spent ⁵₈ of her money on the pair of socks. The pair of high heels cost 7 times as much as the hoodie. How much more did she pay for the pair of high heels than the hoodie?
Amount that Barbara paid for the pair of socks
= ⁵₈ x 192 
= $120

Amount that Barbara left after buying the socks
= 192 - 120
= $72

Amount that Barbara paid for the hoodie = 1 u
Amount that Barbara paid for the high heels = 7 u

Total amount spent on the hoodie and the pair of high heels
= 1 u + 7 u
= 8 u

8 u = 72

1 u = 72 ÷ 8 = 9

Amount that Barbara paid more for the pair of high heels than the hoodie
= 7 u - 1 u
= 6 u
= 6 x 9
= $54

Answer(s): $54
