Use ratio
A:B
25:14
-2u:-1u
1:2

Therefore,
25-2u / 14-1u = 1/2
50-4u = 14-1u
50-14 = 4u-1u
36 = 3u
U = 12

Alice spend =2u = 2×12 = 24

Alice spend : ★★
Alice left : ■

Alice total : ★★ ■ →$25

Bernice spend : ★
Bernice left : ■ ■

Bernice total = ★ ■ ■ →$14


Alice and Bernice altogether :

$25 + $14 = $39

= ★★★■■■ = ★■★■★■

So ★■ = $39 ÷ 3 = $13


Since Alice total = $25 = ★★■,

★ = $25 - $13 = $12


Alice spend = ★★ = $12 × 2 = $24
