The total cost of a sandwich, a glass of milk, and an apple is $2.35 What was the price of each, if the sandwich cost twice as much as the milk and the apple cost 90 cents less than the sandwich?

s=cost of the sandwich.

m=s/2

a=s-.9

s + s/2 + s-.9 = 2.35

2s+s+2s-1.8=4.7 Multiply each side by 2.

5s-1.8=4.7

5s=6.5

s=$1.30

m=$.65

a=$.40
