Answer 1

Ms. Williams bought 70 shirts for $350.00. What was the unit cost? What fraction is equivalent to the unit cost? ​

we know that

to find out the unit cost, divide the total cost by the number of shirts

so

`(350)/(70)=(35)/(7)=\$5\text{ per shirt}`

the unit cost is $5 per shirt

an equivalent fraction is 35/7 or 5/1
