Hmm........it would be 240 dollars. Let the first CD player be represented by C, and the second CD player be represent as 3c. No dollar signs :)

c+ 3c = 320
4c = 320
c = 80

Then we need to factor it: 3(80) = 240.

Thus, the CD player (most expensive one) is $240 (240 dollars<---without the $ sign)
