Harry purchased 16 hinges for his kitchen project. They were each on sale for $3 off the regular price.

The total cost of the hinges was $80.

What was the regular price for each hinge?

First divide 80 by 16: 80/16=5

Since they say the original price was $3 more than when the sale came you have to do 5+3=8

$8 is the original price of each hinge
