Question

A football Jersey costs $69.63. Which equation represents the cost,c,of n jerseys.

Answer 1

So each jersey costs $69.63. So n jerseys costs 69.63n and the total cost would be c.

The equation would look like this:

69.63n = c

Answer 2

c = 69.63n

Explanation:

Each football Jersey cost $69.63. This means that one football jersey is $69.63. If you had 2 football jerseys you would have to multiply the cost of one jersey by 2 to find the total cost of the two jerseys. If you are still having trouble, let me incorperate a simpler scenario. If each candy bar cost $2, and n represents the number of candy bars that you buy, how would you find the cost for 3 candy bars? You would multiply the 2 by 3, or add 2 three times. Hope this helps! :)
