Answer:

Textbooks: $506

Course Materials and Electronics: $323

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to divide the amount into 2 equal parts:

$819/2 = $414.50

Now, because they spent $183 more on textbooks, we add half of that to $414.50.

$414.50 + $91.50 = $506

$414.50 - $91.50 = $323

To make sure that the amount spent on textbooks is $183 more than the amount spent on course materials and computers, we need to add $183 to $323. If we get $506, our answer is correct.

$323 + $183 = $506 ✅

Textbooks: $506

Course Materials and Electronics: $323
