I need to find the amount each friend spent but I don't know how

Answer :

Answer:

1st - £12/$12       2nd - £14/$14

Step-by-step explanation:

x:y - first and second friend as first spent less than second

x- (difference) 23 -y

x+23+y = 49

x+y = 26

x= £1 - £25      y=£25 - £1

12=x  y=14

14+23+12 = 49
