Respuesta :

Answer:

The hockey FCI is $53.57 and the golf FCI is 45.12$.

Explanation:

The hockey FCI (HFCI) is $8.45 more expensive than the golf FIC (GFCI). You know that both FICs are in total: $98.69.  

1- Subtract $8.45 from the total of $98.69: $90.24.

2- Split the remaining amount in half: $90.24/2: $45.12.  

3- The HFCI is $45.12 + $8.45: $53.57.

   The GFCI is $45.12.  

If you add both FCIs you should get the total $98.69:

$53.57 + $45.12: $98.69$

The hockey FCI is $53.57 and the golf FCI is 45.12$.

I hope this answer helps you!
