Question

Sarah bought a binder for 7.25 and six folders totaled for 9.05. how much did each folder cost

Answer 1

binder + folders = total cost

7.25 + folders = 9.05

he bought 6 folders at x cost each

7.25 + 6x =9.05

subtract 7.25 from each side

6x = 9.05-7.25

6x= 1.80

divide each side by 6

x = .30

Each folder cost $.30 or 30 cents
