Christmas presents solution

You could solve this by simultaneous equations, but there is a quick way to do it without working out how much each present costs.

Add together all the amounts – this will give you double the cost as each colour present appears twice. Then just divide your answer by 2.

(£22+£15+£16+£32+£37)/2 = £61
