Tina uses a $50 gift certificate to buy a pair of pajamas for $17.97, a necklace for$25.49, and 3 of socks that each cost the same amount. Tina has to pay $0.33 because the gift certificate does not cover the total cost of all the items. How much does each pair of socks cost?

The answer is:$2.18

Step-by-step explanation
First add $17.97 and $25.49 which equals $43.46. Now we subtract $43.46 from $50 which equals $6.54. Now divided $6.54 by three which equals $2.18
