Q1: $ 1.25
Q2: $ 3.25
Q3: none

I THOUGHT IF IT WAS 4.00 THE CRAYON'S WOULD BE 3.00 $ THE NOTEBOOK WOULD BE 1.00 BUT THERE WAS A 50 CENT'S INN IT AND I KNEW THAT WHEN I TAKE AWAY THE NOTEBOOK'S COST FROM THE CRAYON'S COST IT WOULD HAVE TO EQUAL 2.00, SO I KNEW THAT THE LAST 2 NUMBERS WOULD HAVE TO BE THE SAME,(SO THAT WHEN I TAKE AWAY THEY WOULD EQUAL ZERO) BUT I THOUGHT THAT 50 CENTS COULDEN'T BE DIVIDED SINCE 5 WAS A ODD NUMBER , THEN I REMEMBERED THAT 50 COULD BE DIVIDED SINCE IT WAS BIGGER THEN 5 , WHEN I DIVIDED IT THE ANSWER WAS 25 SO I THOUGHT MAYBE I COULD TRY TO SEE IF IT COULD WORK AND IT DID.

Solution:
Q1: The notebook cost $1.25.
Q2: The crayons cost $3.25.

Since the crayons cost $2.00 more than the notebook I came up to $1.25 not $1.00 because it said that Jerry used $4.50 to buy both the items. So it couldn't be $1.00. I did $3.50 because $4.50-$1.25=$3.25.

I did the problem solving stategy "Guess and check." You are supposed to guess the answer and then check if your answer is right. But make an educated guess. That means that if your answer is really far away, then guess a bigger or smaller number. If the answer is close, or very close,don't guess a number that is a lot bigger then that number.
