    fruit = $0.5

    therefore milk = $1.1 and roll = $1.4

    here goes
    milk = fruit + 60¢
    roll = milk + 30¢
    therefor roll = (fruit + 60) + 30 = fruit + 90¢

    Mary spent 300¢, she bought roll + milk + fruit
    substitute terms
    (fruit + 90) + (fruit + 60) + fruit = 300
    3 x fruit + 150 = 300
    3 x fruit = 150, so fruit = 50¢
    so the roll was 50 + 90 = $1.40 and the milk = $1.10

    check roll + milk + fruit = $1.40 + $1.10+ $0.50 = $3.00



    do I get the piece fruit??

    How many of you never thought you'd ever use algebra when you were at school?
