Question

PLEASE ASAP: The tennis club has 5 new members each member buys a racet and a tube of balls. If 6 racket cost $186.00 and 6 tubes of balls cost $27.00 how much do the 5 people pay for rackets and balls?

Answer 1

Total cost is $177.50.

Explanation:

Rackets:

Divide the cost for racket by 6 to find the cost per racket.

186÷6=31

Multiply 31 by 5 to find the cost for 5 rackets.

31×5=155

$155

Tubes of balls:

Divide 27 by 6 to find the cost per a tube of balls.

27÷6=4.50

Multiply 4.50 by 5 to find the cost for 5 tubes of balls.

4.50×5=22.50

$22.50

Add the amounts for rackets and tubes of balls to find the total cost.

155+22.50=177.50

The total cost is $177.50.

Hope this helps!
