Question

Karen made 2 identical necklaces, each having beads and a pendant. The total cost of the beads and pendants for both necklaces was $10.60. If the beads cost $1.60 for each necklace, how much did each pendant cost?

Answer 1

each pendant costs $3.70.

Explanation:

t's start by denoting the cost of each pendant by "x". We know that the total cost of the beads and pendants for both necklaces was $10.60, and that the beads cost $1.60 for each necklace.

Therefore, the cost of the pendants for both necklaces must be:

10.60 - (2 x 1.60) = $7.40

Since Karen made two identical necklaces, the cost of the pendants for one necklace must be half of the total cost of the pendants for both necklaces:

7.40 / 2 = $3.70

Therefore, each pendant costs $3.70.

Answer 2
