A shopkeeper bought 26 apples from a fruit vendor for $37.70.How much did each apple cost?

Answer 1

Answer: 1.45 Cents per (Rounded to the nearest cent)

Explanation:

26 apples = $37.70

We want what one apple costs individually. The best way to do this is to divide both sides by 26.

1 apple = 37.70/26

1 apple = 1.45 Cents

Answer 2

37.70/26 = 1.45 per apple
