RE: An Eraser, Pencil, Notebook together costs $1.00. ...

See ..

there are few possible answers.. but I cannot assure you.. becoz.. the question says that the following condition satisfies...

1. N > 2P
2. 3P > 4E
3. 3E > 1N

where N-notebook P-pencil E-Eraser ....

according to that.. if u take notebook as 55 cents.. pencil as 26 cents.. and eraser as 19 cents.. all the above condition satisfies....
Also doing some minor changes in all the above three values even satisfies the three conditions.. do u have the options with you?.. or do u have any other condition along with the above 3?..

so that we can get exact answer...

????
