1. Ron buys 15 pens for $ 375.45. What is the cost of one pen?

Number of pens Ron bought = 15

Cost of 15 pens = $ 375.45

Therefore, cost of one pen = $ 375.45 ÷ 15 = $ 25.03

 

2. Shane bought 14 toys for $ 1547. Find the cost of 1 toy.

Number of toys Shane bought = 14

Cost of 14 toys = $ 1547

Therefore, cost of one toy = $ 1547.00 ÷ 14 = $ 110.50

3. Shelly buys 9 books for $ 211.59. What is the cost of one book?

Number of books Shelly bought = 9

Cost of 9 books = $ 211.59

5. Sam paid $210.50 for 2 chocolate bars and 1 ice-cream. If cost of ice-cream is $62.50 find the cost of one chocolate bar.

Solution:

Cost of 2 chocolate bars = $210.50 - $62.50 = $ 148.00

Cost of 1 chocolate bar = $148 ÷ 2 = $74.00

Hence, cost of 1 chocolate bar = $74.00

Cost of each ice-cream = ₹ 5

                                                      = 17
