Question

Isaac bought snacks for his team’s practice. He bought a bag of chips for $2.94 and a 8-pack of juice bottles. The total cost before tax was $16.62. How much was each bottle of juice?

Answer 1

$16.62 - $2.94 = $13.68

$13.68/8 = $1.71

Each bottle of juice is $1.71

Answer 2

each bottle of juice was $1.71

Explanation

first, subtract the cost of the chips from the total cost

$16.62 - $2.94 = $13.68

now we know the price of all 8 juice bottles. To find the price of each bottle of juice, divide the total price of all 8 juice bottles by 8

$13.68 / 8 = $1.71
