Question

If a donut shop sells a dozen donuts for $6.00, what would the cost of 9 donuts be at the same rate?

Answer 1

To solve this question, first we need to find out the price of a single donut.

12 donuts = $ 6.00
1 donuts = $6.00 / 12

1 donuts = $ 0.50

After that, we just need to multiply the price for a single donut with the required amount (9), which will be:

9 x $ 0.50 = $ 4.50 . . . . for 9 donuts
