Answer:

cost of each bottle of juice is $0.77

Explanation:

Let the cost of 1 bottle be $x

multiplying both side by 3

then cost of 3 bottle will be 3*$x = $3x

given that

total cost of 3 bottles = $2.31

thus

3x = 2.31

dividing both side by 3

x = 2.31/3 = 0.77

Thus, cost of each bottle of juice is $0.77
