A wedding planner purchased 150 table sets. Each set consists of 1 plate (p) and 1 napkin (n). She paid $4.25 for each plate (p). If she paid a total of $795 for 150 sets, what is the cost of each napkin?​

_____________________

Total cost =795

150 table sets

Cost per set = 795/ 150

Cost per set = 5.3

_________________________

$4.25 for each plate

set= p +n

5.3 = 4.25 + n

n = 5.3 -4.25

n = 1.05

The cost of each napkin is $1.05
