Let the cost of Orange Juice be "x".
Cost of Bottle of Milk be "y".
Since the cost of a bottle of orange juice is equal to the cost of two bottles of milk.
cost of a bottle of orange juice = cost of two bottles of milk
x = 2 y
3 bottles of orange juice and 5 bottles of milk equals 66 dollar
3x + 5y = 66
Put x = 2 y 3 ( 2 y ) + 5 y = 66 3 ( 2 y ) + 5 y = 66 6 y + 5 y = 66 11 y = 66 y = 6
Therefore the cost of bottle of milk is 6 dollar
