Grace works as a salesperson at an electronics store and sells phones and phone accessories, and makes a fixed commission for each phone sale and a different fixed commission for each accessory sale. Yesterday Grace sold 18 phones and 21 accessories and made a total commission of $204. Today she sold 6 phones and 14 accessories and made a total commission of $82. Determine the price of each phone and the price of each accessory.

The information is the amount of commission yet the question is about p'rice of each. Review your post for accuracy!

To amplify Mark's comment: in effect your question has 4 unknowns, namely the commission for each phone, the commission for each accessory, the price of a phone and the price of an accessory...but only 2 equations.

I'm thinking the question should be to find the phone and accessory commissions. Then it is solvable.
