Chris was standing at the cash register when he realized he was $1.20 short. He was buying a mouse and a mousepad. He realized the mouse cost 95% of his money, and the mousepad cost 15% of his money. How much does the mouse cost, and how much does the mousepad cost?

95%+15%=110% so, 110%-100% is 10% and this means that 10% of both, costs 1.20. now, 10 times 1.20 is 12 dollars and we know that the whole purchace costs 12 dollars. 15 percent of 12 dollars is 1.8 dollars or, one dollar and 80 cents
