From module Word Problems

Problem

Four friends, Art, Roger, Paul and Trisha, bake cookies, and all cookies have the same thickness. The shapes of the cookies differ, as shown: Art's cookies are trapezoids, Roger's cookies are rectangles, Paul's cookies are parallelograms, and Trisha's cookies are triangles. [See figure in original PDF]

Each friend uses the same amount of dough, and Art makes exactly 1212 cookies. Art's cookies sell for 6060 cents each. To earn the same amount from a single batch, how much should one of Roger's cookies cost in cents?
