Fred went to play miniature golf on Monday, when it cost $5 to rent the club and ball, plus $3 per game. Simon went Thursday, paying $1 per game, plus rental fees of $15. By coincidence, they played the same number of games for the same total cost. How much did each one spend?

Answer 1

5+3g = 15 +g

2g = 10

g=5 games each $20 each

15+5=5+3(5)=20
