What is the cost of 10 burgers and 8 sandwich in dollars?
(1) The combined cost is less than 20$, and the cost of each is an integer dollar value.
(2) The cost of 25 burgers and 20 sandwich is 45$.
Let the cost of one burger be "b", and that of a sandwich be "s".
So, we basically need to find: 10b + 8s = ?

Statement 1:
10b + 8s < 20
=> 5b + 4s < 10
Since, it is given that the cost of each is an integer dollar value, there only one pair of (b, s) that satisfy the above inequality, i.e, b =1 & s = 1.
Hence, we get 10s + 8s = $18. Sufficent.

Statement 2:
25b + 20s = 45
=> 5b + 4s = 9
=> 10b + 8s = $18. Sufficient.

Option (D) is the correct answer.

In these questions, should we not assume cost as $0 each given zero is an integer and if that is considered, statement 1 is not sufficient. While I understand nothing comes for free, but given we are making an assumption here, I thought its better to clarify what needs to be done during the exam?

Thanks,
Sonia
