    Ok so the solution which greenrune will (hopefully) correct

    total is 1.5

    p+r=1.5

    rule is 1 more than pencil

    r=1+p

    sub 1+p for r

    p+1+p=1.5

    2p+1=1.5

    minus 1 from both sides

    2p=0.5

    divide both sides by 2

    p=0.25

    pencil=$0.25

    Pencil + Ruler = 1.50

    Ruler is exactly 1.00 more so one of the items has to be 1.25

    1.25 - 1.00 = 25

    Ruler costs 1.25; Pencil costs 25
