Answer:

$4

Step-by-step explanation:

2 Bracelets + 3 rings = $26

2 rings = $12

3 rings = x

To get the cost of 1 ring you divide 12 by 2 and the answer you get is 6.

The total cost of the 3 rings is $18( $6*3)

Then you subtract the cost of both 2 bracelets and 3 rings($26) from the cost of 3 rings($18). The answer is $8. ( THIS IS THE COST OF 2 BRACELETS)

1 BRACELET= $4( $8/2)
