Answer:

1.32 cm

Explanation:

Hello!

Let the thickness of 1 magazine be x centimeters.

15 times this value should be 19.8 centimeters. So in an equation format, it would be 15x = 19.8. We can now solve for x.

Solve for x

  • 15x = 19.8
  • x = 19.8 ÷ 15
  • x = 1.32

Each magazine is 1.32 centimeters thick.
