Hi ksi,
Thanks for the model. The working can be simplifed as follows:-

5u = 125-80=45
u=45/5=9
Therefore T=80-9=71

Q3) Mrs Tan paid $171 for 5 books and 6 files. If 3 files cost the same as 2 books, how much did she pay for the books?\t\t\t\t\t\t
\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
3 files cost the same as 2 books\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
6 files cost the same as 4 books\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
5 books and 6 files = 9 books\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

9 books = 171\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
1 book = 19\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

5 books = 5 x 19\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\t = 95\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
Mrs Tan paid $95 for the books
