Buying name brand jeans cost $10 more than four times the cost of buying a similar generic pair of jeans. If the name brand jeans cost $82, what is the cost of the generic pair of jeans?

Question

I need help, more specifically, I need someone to show me how to do this.

Answer 1

B=10 + 4G =82

4G = 72

G = $18 for generic jeans
