How this problem is worded, &nbsp;it shows that the person who created it, &nbsp;does not know relevant terminology


and is unfamiliar with the way on how such problems should be formulated and presented &nbsp;&nbsp;(probably, 

never opened any &nbsp;Math textbook, &nbsp;and got his &nbsp;(or her) &nbsp;mathematical education from reading puzzles).



Simply &nbsp;TERRIBLE &nbsp;formulation . . . 



When I see so terrible formulations at this forum, &nbsp;my first and only wish is to call 
to &nbsp;Emergency &nbsp;Medical &nbsp;Service for urgent help . . . 



I solved it with one single purpose - to remove it from the flow of arriving problems - - - 

- - - in order for do not see it again and again every time . . .

    and then sells them separately to customers at the price of Php 18.50 per item.
