Question

Kirk bought 6 bags of popcorn for $15.36. How much would he pay for 4 bags?

Answer 1

Divide $15.36 by 6 to find the cost of a bad of popcorn.

$15.36÷6=$2.56

One bag of popcorn equals $2.56.

Now multiply $2.56 by 4.

$2.56×4=10.24

That being said, your answer is $10.24.

Answer 2

First you need to find out how much 1 bag costs. To do this you need to divide 15.36 and 6, which gives you 2.56. Then you need to multiply 2.56 and 4 which gives you 10.24.

Hope this helps :).
