$2.99

Take total price divided by total items.

8.99/(2 purchased + 1 free)

8.99/3 = $2.99 (rounded)

Answer:

The price per item is $2.99

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the price paid overall is $8.99,it implies that the price paid would be shared over the number of products received, in other words three products.

The rationale for this is that seller normally builds the price of the free item into the pricing structure,that the price quoted includes the price of the two items bought and the extra one since businesses are established to make profits.

Price per item=$8.99/2+1

=$8.99/3

=$2.99
