    If you put it in algebraic terms, and pizza is p, soda is s

    1p + 1s = 1.99

    3p + 2s = 5.48

    to find the cost individually you use simultaneous equations

    by multiplying the top equation by 2 you get

    2p + 2s = 3.98

    and then you can say that 1p is 5.48-3.98 = 1.50

    and if 1p = 1.50, 1s = 1.99-1.50=49
