Given:

Arnold has $24 to spend at the movies.

Ticket = $12

Popcorn is double the price of the soda.

The soda and candy bar are same price.

To find:

The price for the soda.

Solution:

Let x be the price of soda.

According to the question,

Price of candy = Price of soda = x

Price of popcorn = 2(price of soda) = 2x

Total amount = Ticket + Popcorn + Soda + Candy

24=12+2x+x+x

24=12+4x

24-12=4x

12=4x

Divide both sides by 4.

$\dfrac{12}{4}=x$

3=x

Therefore, the price of soda is $3.
