Answer:

0.166

Explanation:

Bought 18 cards for $2.99, so you can write it like this:

18 = 2.99

Since you want to find the value of one card, u could write that like this:

1 = x (where x is the unknown value of 1 card)

To get from 18 to 1, you divide by 18, so to get to 2.99 to x you must divide by 18 as well.

So 2.99/18 = 0.166

therefore x = 0.166

So you can say that each card costs about 17 c
