Jane bought some slices of cheesecakes and mango cakes for a party. She spent $60 and $40 on the cheesecakes and mango cakes respectively. Each slice of mango cake cost $2 more than each slice of cheesecake and she bought twice as many as cheesecakes as mango cakes. Find the cost of each slice of cheesecake?
Thx.

Number of pears sold ----- 2 units + 4

Number of plums sold ----- 3 units

Number of pears left ----- 8 units + 16

Number of plums left ----- 7 units

15 units + 16 ------ 46

15 units ------ 30

1 unit ------ 2

Number of plums left ----- 7 units ------ 14

b) Class 5B raised $104 less than class 5C. How much money did class 5C raise?
