Problems?
Everyone has problems in his/her life, but do you know what a problem is? having a discussion with my lecturer and classmates, we referred a problem as something that differs between the results and expected goal, needs to be solved, encourages somebody to find out the solution or to do something dealing with the problems.

Which one is more expensive?

Posted by Unknown | Labels:


It's the first day of my problem-solving  course with Mr. Ucup. I actually like his style of teaching and the course since I never got this course when i was at undergraduate.

Here is an example of problem solving in mathematics I got today;
Budi bought 3 pens and 2 books worth Rp. 30,000
Budi also bought 2 pens and 2 books worth Rp. 25,000

Then the question is which one is more expensive? pen or book?

Here is a simple answer without calculating each price,


We can see that both of them have 2 pens and 2 books, if we just add/buy one more pen it costs Rp. 30,000 and if we add/buy one more book, it costs Rp. 25.000.

Conclusion:
 It's clear that a pen is more expensive Rp. 5,000 than a book.
