11 for one and 14 for the other. The one that was 3 more is 14.

Answer: The price of the more expensive scarf is $14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total amount Sonji paid = $25.00

Let the price of first scarf be x

Let the price of second scarf be x+3

According to question,

[tex]x+x+3=25\\\\2x+3=25\\\\2x=25-3\\\\2x=22\\\\x=\frac{22}{2}\\\\x=11[/tex]

So, price of first scarf will be $11

and the price of second scarf will be 11+3=$14

Hence, the price of the more expensive scarf will be $14.
