Zane and Glen had $126 and $98 respectively. Each of them bought a hoodie and a shirt at the same price. The cost of the hoodie was 5 times as much as the shirt. In the end, Zane had 3 times as much money as Glen. What was the difference between the cost of the shirt and the hoodie?

	Zane	Glen	Difference
Before	$126	$98	$28
Change	- 6 p	- 6 p
After	3 u	1 u	2 u

Since Zane and Glen bought the same items at the same price, the difference in the amounts they had remains unchanged at first and in the end.

3 u - 1 u = 126 - 98
2 u = 28

1 u = 28 ÷ 2 = 14

Cost of 1 hoodie = 5 p
Cost of 1 shirt = 1 p

Total cost of 1 hoodie and 1 shirt
= 5 p + 1 p
= 6 p

6 p = 98 - 14
6 p = 84

1 p = 84 ÷ 6 = 14

Difference in the cost between the hoodie and the shirt
= 5 p - 1 p
= 4 p
= 4 x 14
= $56

Answer(s): $56
